Spring planning and planting tip from Blain's Farm & Fleet

WAUKESHA (CBS 58)-- A vegetable garden can be a fun and healthy hobby for you and your family. Starting a vegetable garden is a great way to grow your own organic food and bring your very own vegetables to your kitchen table.

Miranda Becker, Blain’s Farm & Fleet representative, has a few top tips for starting your own vegetable garden, including where to place your plants, how to keep out garden thieves, as well as when to harvest. She's also a huge proponent of container gardening.  She says this type of planting works well, especially if you're limited on space.

Blain's has a "Blain's Blog" serving as a great online resource with any type of question you might have about gardening.  And while you're at it, Blain's might be able to help with last minute Mother's Day gift ideas as well.
