If you’ve just decided to join the organic gardening community, welcome to the fold! Most of us start out by growing our own veggies, and we’ve got some suggestions we think are ideal for the new organic gardener.

Ideal vegetables for starting out include radishes and arugula (both of which mature in as little as two weeks!), squash, cucumbers, zucchini, turnips, collards, Japanese eggplant, and tomatoes.

If you live in a warmer climate, both sweet and hot peppers will thrive. Just be sure you keep everything watered and weeded, and you’ll end up with more vegetables than you can handle.
