History of gardening

Gardening is something that has been part of history since the beginning. For thousands of years people have been growing their own food and has been the only way of survival for many people and is something that still applies today. While most people don’t garden today in order for their food it is something that many people find themselves doing. The reason why people garden is not the only that has changed over the years but how they garden as well. The tools that have been made today help people all over the garden easier than it was before. Machines also play a big roll in the way that gardening has changed over the years, the tasks that were once done with the use of horses are now done with big industrial machines. I have mentioned before most people who used to garden did so in order to had food to eat, however most people who do it today garden for fun and as a hobby. Gardening was different in each country and the crops that were grown were once only able to grow in that area due to the climate. The crops that were grown in South America were not the same crops that were able to grow in parts of North America. The climate was something that many farms had to think about when is came to gardening, since whatever they were planting would be one of their only food source. Today thanks to science it is very easy to grow any crops no matter where you live as long as you grow it in a controlled environment.

As people started to garden as a hobby it quickly became seen as an art. The placement of the flowers are something that takes a long time to arrange and is not something that can be done light heartedly.
