One misconception that I am only now clearing up is that it is not possible to provide an adequate diet from a vegetable garden.  We were taught that meat, or at least grain or dairy products are necessary for a healthy diet.  If you are still dependent on the agribusiness complex for those items, why bother with intensive gardening?
 
If, on the other hand, you can, by gardening, provide a complete and healthy diet with only fruits and vegetables, then intensive gardening is suddenly a lot more important.

Here's something I want to throw out for comment. What popular
misconceptions keep gardeners from trying permanent beds, mulching, and
intensive or mixed planting?

our most pleasing responsibility. To cherish what remains of it and to
foster its renewal is our only hope.
