Please ask any questions you may have about plants, in the comments of any post or by email. I love to help people to be better gardeners. If I don't know the answer, I have lots of great resources to find it and I love to learn new things, too!

Soil Bacteria Can Make You Happy!

Do you ever wonder why working in the dirt makes you happy?? This article may have an explanation for us all! Studies have shown that a certain bacteria in the soil may be helping mice be happier!

Maybe if we all "eat mud" as suggested by the title, we could be happier people! I'm hoping just being around the soil will get some of it in my system, instead!
