Spending as little as 15 minutes a day just watering your plants and walking around your garden to enjoy your plantings can be very beneficial. Gardening can actually burn up to 100 – 200 calories per hour!

The other great benefit to gardening can be enjoying your own homegrown fruits and vegetables. Growing your own fruits and veggies ensures they are fresh and that you’re also eating something healthy each day. Add a few new types of vegetables to your garden and enjoy the vitamin D and cardio that will get your heart pumping as well! To read more about getting fit while gardening, click here.
