years more and more people are growing vegetable gar- dens,” he says. According to the National
Gardening Association, the spike began in the 2008 re- cession. A 2014 report found five years after the recession started, the number of Amer- icans growing food jumped from 36 million households to 42 million. The largest increases in
participation were seen among millennials, which saw a 63 percent increase;
and community gardens which were up 200 percent. While the economy was the impetus for many initial gardeners, according to a survey by NGA, other reasons people grow a garden is be- cause the produce tastes bet- ter, it’s healthy, they have concerns over largescale commercial farming and know where their food comes from.
Another ongoing trend is
the increase in demand for all things organic, which makes sense as more people feed their family and don’t want to coat their food in chemicals.
