Keeping a garden healthy is pretty simple. A little fresh air and sunshine, a drink of water every now and then plus the occasional good meal. Not much to it.
People, I've come to realize, respond to the same health promoting principles. We get into trouble, just like gardens do, when we tinker with Mother Nature.

We get into trouble when we ignore Mother Nature's basic principles for good garden health and try to bully her into doing things our way.
