I am moving in to a new place and I want to start an indoor garden. I would love to grow fruit and vegetables. Do you have any tips or tricks or recommendations of what to grow? I will be residing in Georgia. I want to reduce my footprint. I love your garden that you have showcased through instagram and this website. Any advice would be much appreciated. Thank you so so much. I hope you and your family are doing well during these uncertain times.

Their litte sister passed away and we set up a memorial garden for her. Things we grow dont just nourish our bodies physically but things we grow in her memorial garden help connect them to her and help emotionally too. Thanks for all the handy tips and tricks, looking forward to reading more! 💓

I just got my Subpod growing bed (worm composting) set up this weekend and I’m so excited about turning this Virginia clay into healthy soil!

(Oh, and it makes my nerd heart happy that you linked to a reasearch study; science rules!)

We’ve just planted some kale. lettuce and snow peas in the hope of getting a winter crop. At least we’ve had some decent (too much) rain lately and we have a water bore for the dry summer season.

Sadly we don’t have much growing room, but we do have a lot of pots with roses, succulents and bromeliads. My daughter also has a whole bunch of carnivorous plants.

Thanks for the inspiration!

People say I have a small farm! I have a mixture of strawberries, blueberries, dill, basil, thyme, green onions, red bell peppers, chili peppers, regular hot peppers, Italian tomatoes, romaine lettuce, curly lettuce, broccoli, and cucumbers!

I'm growing strawberries, potatoes, lettuce, spinach, carrots, tomatoes, chives and cucumbers and it's going pretty well. I live in Iceland, and it's been pretty cold even for summer so we'll see. But I love growing my own food, however little it is😊]]> I have a beautiful garden and black thumbs😆 great combination lol, but am trying.

My daughter and I love to watch the bell peppers and jalepeños grow in our garden. She gets so excited when new ones form and then ripen to eat. Also, she loves to smell and use the mint in our garden window and is so excited to cook with me. She’s amazed by our aloe plant and and how it can be used for so many healthy purposes. It’s a great learning experience for her and fun at the same time. I love how kids get excited about watching things grow as much as we enjoy watching them grow and learn how to make their own gardens someday.
