Garden Power


I am sick of being confined to my yard-less apartment. I'm growing an indoor herb garden this year! Just planted seeds in a little sprouter box. This is the first time I've used one and I'm very excited! I'm going all natural with only organic herbs this year. I bought herbs from two lovely etsy stores, The Little Ragmuffin and Homegrown Healthy. I doubt the sprouter kit is organic but its so cool, like miniature burlap sacks filled with soil, and when I transfer the baby plants to pots and boxes I'll use organic soil so good enough for me.
My husband and I are looking forward to fresh herbs this season. We will have so many yummy choices! Sweet and Purple Basil, Chives, Dill, Cilantro and edible flowers... I want to add mint and mini tomatoes and peppers too (but my space is limited so we will see). So many cooking possibilities and for flavor fresh usually far out beats dried.
