There is a lot of concern and speculation regarding organic gardening and farming in today’s times. People have been misguided into what others call and classify as true organic gardening or farming. How much of organic vegetable gardening or farming is still organic? The principle of organic gardening and farming is to stay holistically as possible without any diversions, however this is not always possible and some chemicals for insecticides have to be introduced to crops and plants if no other quick means is found to save the crop or garden from major damage. Since there is so much unnecessary hunger around the world it makes you think if those who consumed ever put back what mother nature allowed them to have in the beginning, the answer to that is simple, no!

In some African countries where food is a major shortage, efforts have been made to teach the masses to support and feed themselves from their own land, only to find that the land and food sources have been drained and never replenished after the first crop, thereby destroying what Mother Nature allowed them to make use of, yet they still complain and seek help from around the globe. In some parts of Africa it has been known that the governments have allowed the masses to “take” over the fully working farms from the minority, only for it to be rendered useless within the first few years.
