Some of the most pesticide-laden produce are the softer fruits and vegetables. Why not start with these? It doesn't take much space to grow a few raspberry canes, pea plants, green beans, and so on. We also have apple, pear and fig trees - offering organic options to the biggest pesticide problems. Have a look at the list of highest pesticide residues and see if you can replace those.

I grow herbs indoors all year and tomatoes and peppers as well. The garden gets bigger every year because I find more and more varieties to try.

I have two citrus trees. If you live in a warm climate these tend to grow really well.

These are pretty easy to plant... not enough room for fruit trees but my parents have grapes and apple trees... they're great if you get to them before the birds do.

Tomatoes and strawberries grow best for me in this location. My property doesn't have any topsoil and it costs a lot to lay all that down before planting.

I grow these every year. We have great salads almost every night.
Side note... On a recent trip to WDW, went for tour in 'The Land". Saw a great idea of growing all vine vegetables almost like trees. Have them climb twine/rope up to a trellis above. Keep lower part of plant with minimal leaves and growth to minimize insects. Makes alot of sense compared to having everything right on the ground. Vegies grow uniform and larger since it hangs and has no obstacles. I might try it this year. If anyone else has gone this route- I'd love to hear your results!

And with it Spring Fever! I have plans to try many of their new veggies including a seedless tomato and multi colored bell peppers!
