How about a gardening trick that turns trash into food?
Regrow vegetables and fruits to transform them from stems, cores and seeds into fresh, delicious plants you can eat.
It requires very little time and space, and no extra money!
In this article I’ll explain how fun, fast and easy it is to regrow vegetables and fruits with your kids even if you have a black thumb.

Gardening is a great family activity to get kids outside and teach them that the food on their plates comes from the earth, not just the grocery store!
If you want to grow a family garden, go for it! It’s fun for kids to watch fruits and vegetables grow and then eat their newly grown bounty. You can use seeds or starter plants, but either method requires some patience.
The quickest way to reap fully grown, edible plants is to regrow your food from the uneaten parts of other fruits and veggies. It’s fun. It’s cool to see the process. It’s instant gratification gardening (or the closest thing to it).
