Square Foot Gardening not only helps you eat better, do less work, save money and water, but the effects of SFG on the environment are great also. Think of all that is needed to get food into the grocery stores. The packaging, transportation, production systems, etc., all leave a huge impact on the environment. This is what is known as a carbon footprint*. This is a measurement of the impact each action we take has on the environment. We would like to thank Kim Clark and all the people at U.S News and World Report for their wonderful article and for helping us spread the word about how SFG can improve your life and the world.
