Are you tired of paying the high cost of organic vegetables in the store but struggle to grow your own?

For each of your goals you are going to need to create a SMART strategy. Today we are just going to start with your most important goal you want to complete in 2020.
Let\\u2019s say your SMART goal is to plant a bed of lettuce every week for the first 2 months of spring. It\\u2019s strategic because you want to eat healthy lettuce while it\\u2019s growing before it get\\u2019s too hot and bolts in the middle of summer. It\\u2019s measurable because you can schedule out plantings each Saturday morning perhaps starting in March through the end of April. It\\u2019s attainable because by the end of March you should be able to get lettuce seeds started. And if you can\\u2019t you can always adjust your dates. It\\u2019s relevant because you like lettuce. It\\u2019s time bound because it will start in April and end in May.
This might seem like a lengthy process but if you really want to achieve your goals and not just say, I\\u2019m gonna put in a garden this year, it\\u2019s much more likely to be successful.
Another example of a smart goal might be you want to build 2 new deep beds by Spring growing season.
