Indoor Garden



This Christmas I was given an indoor garden. We have a metal shelf unit, and 2 flourescent lights. We have a variety of herbs, spinach, lettuce, peas and tomatoes (grape, I think). It's so nice to have the herbs right there, just steps from the kitchen. Everything tastes so much better. So far, we have only had one pea pod, but it was so fun watching it grow that it has definitely been worth it. The tomatoe plant is just covered in flowers so, hopefully we get some fruit soon. I chose those veggies because I found organic, heritage varieties that grow well in pots, indoors. It's nice to have a little bit of summer when the weather is so crappy out.
