*Try not to get dizzy I seem to tilt my head when taking pictures, sorry 😏*

Although in the shadows, showing the lettuce

Growing away I've cut several times recently for salads and sandwiches

November 12, 26

I wanted to show how it looks growing in the Vegepod

Inside in the AeroGarden

Italian Genovese Basil front left - Cherry Falls Tomatoes Botanical Interests in other three pods

These AeroGardens are showing their age, but they're still growing strong!

We've eaten lots of things we wouldn't have had in the house on hand otherwise. I'm all for saving trips to the grocery stores constantly (even though I surely keep them in business as well!) 😄 

You know I love to cook.

Vegepods I always have something growing in them

Lettuce in jars cut from both indoor and outdoor gardens

Tomatoes grown in the Vegepods and raised gardens outdoors

I put my lettuce in canning jars 

Refrigerate 

Keeps it crisper  

Plus it makes salads quick and easy to fix

Prepping Fruit & Vegetables For The Week

I so glad Hoss grows and sells these pods and seeds. You pre-order their plugs. I received mine  on September 17th.   I so glad I ordered the Lettuce Bundles. 

Things at home had me in a hectic pace so these saved a lot of time and trouble. 

It's good to know if we don't get our seeds in on time there is a source for good, safe seeds and pods. 

I mean, who ever thought we'd have a blame lettuce scare, like we had not long ago? 😒

Do you like salad?  We sure do!

Whether you grow you own indoors or outdoors like this, having your own when you would like is great!

Happy Gardening!
Until Next Time
