Praise Be the Gardener in Me
Being able to go out and pick my own Freshly Grown Bok Choy, Lettuce, Kale & Beets
is the BEST FEELING ever !!! It works well with my diet - a quick snack whenever I want only a few yards away.Best of all = IT'S FREE !!!! :)
#1 Tip - Grow stuff = Easy things like Lettuce, Kale, & Bok Choy
Pick the leaves as they become ready, leaving the plant in the soil to produce more... Clever gardening :)

Isn't that like Celery? I cant remember. I know I have seen it in the grocery before.

Gardening is not only good for food and your wallet, but it's a great stress reliever. Grounding yourself in the soil, creating something with your hands and sweat. Gives you quite a feeling of accomplishment too :) Good Job!

Bok Choy is a relative of Chinese Cabbage

Bok Choy is delicious. I use it all the time in my stir fry dishes. Mmmm. I haven't had kale in a while. Nice to just go out in your yard and bring the fresh veggies in. Plus, you know what was used in the cultivation process whereas when you buy it from the market you don't really know what was used.

Do not forget the lowly radish. The greens are considered a super food. great in the soup pot, stir fried in salad with lettuce. Best thing of all is entire plant is ready to harvest in 25 days! Stirfry root, leaves and all!
