Garden boom as food prices rise spurs home growing trend
University of Minnesota expert Dr. Clint Turnquist says rising food costs push people to grow their own produce. Rep. Silvio Conte publicly plants a garden as a protest against farm subsidies, drawing mixed reactions. Seed sellers report rising demand but warn of price hikes and germination problems due to spring weather. Texas horticulturist Dr. John Lawson notes about 85 million home gardeners, with growth of 1 million yearly and a surge in small 10 by 12 foot plots, rivaling wartime efforts.
