organic gardens

Pesticide-free growing spaces

Organic gardens are plots cultivated without synthetic pesticides, herbicides, or fertilizers, relying instead on natural methods like composting, crop rotation, and beneficial insects for pest control.

The term emphasizes working with natural systems rather than against them: She converted her backyard into an organic garden.

Organic gardening connects to broader movements around sustainability and chemical-free food production.
