🪴 Indoor Crops You Can Grow Anywhere!
|
Hey Reader! You don't have to have land, or even a yard, to grow your own food! Here are a few of my favorite crops to grow inside (which I still do, even on 8 acres!)
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Perfect for the windowsill (or a small patio), lettuce is an easy crop that will grow for continuous picking as long as the weather is under about 85°F! I love having a few pots of lettuce in my kitchen window all year to harvest from!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Another easy windowsill crop, you can enjoy sprouts even if you don't have a windowsill deep enough for a pot! You can grow them in a mason jar on your counter. So simple and highly nutritious! NOTE: I will have the sprouter stands again in my March 2nd cracker cutter batch on Etsy! They have been out of stock for almost 3 years, so keep an eye out!!
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A fabulous option for simple, flavorful nutrition right inside your own home! This post covers all the basics for how (and what) to grow when it comes to growing herbs inside! |

Crispy on the outside and perfectly soft in the middle, there is something so satisfying about a plate of hash browns.

If you have a crop of potatoes or just find a good deal at the store, then turning some of them into frozen hash browns should be on your to-do list!
