Recession gardening

We're working on a story tonight about how many people are turning to vegetable gardening to help ease the effects of the recession. It makes sense to me. Everytime I show up at my favorite nursery, the place is packed!
Local nurseries report a significant increase in sales of vegetable and fruit plants as well as seeds.
It's awesome to hear that so many people are discovering the joys and frugality of gardening.
