Experts in nutrition suggest that we should eat at least five different kinds of vegetables and fruit a day. They are very necessary for our health and help our bodies work well. They can help reduce the risk of getting ill. There are a lot of vegetables and fruit to choose from and they taste delicious. 1.

It's easy to buy our food from the local supermarket, so why do we go to the trouble of growing our own? Here are several good reasons：

2. You can pick and eat it at once. When you have tried it, you will agree that vegetables and fruit that are eaten straight from the garden taste better than anything you can buy in a supermarket.

You may want to cut down on your “food miles”—the distance that a product has travelled before it reaches your kitchen. Many food packages are flown halfway across the earth. 3.

Homegrown food is likely to be healthier. Food producers often use fertilizers and pesticides which can end up in your food. If you grow your own, things are different. 4. You might also choose to grow some traditional vegetables and fruit. These often have more important things that keep you healthy.

5. And you can grow your own even if you only have a small backyard. Some food can grow well in pots, including tomatoes, potatoes and carrots. You can recycle plastic bottles and cups to grow something. Just make sure there are holes for drainage and a small plate under them to catch drops of water.

A.Best of all, you can grow your own!

B.That's not so good for you, or for the planet.

C.Food that you grow yourself is always fresh.

D.If you have a large garden, growing your own is easy.

E.You can control what goes on and into the food you eat.
