Now the Spring is finally arriving, a lot of folks have visions of beautiful gardens dancing in their heads. Here in Ohio, we have a good sized yard, and the kids definitely want to plant some flowers, herbs, and veggies of their own. Not only is this a hands-on Science lesson for my homeschoolers, it's also learning valuable life skills. I personally believe that every child should learn to cultivate their own sustainable, healthy foods. Not only does this save money at the grocery store, it also promises fresher produce and fosters pride in hard work and dedication. Gardening for kids is definitely a win-win situation in my book!
Recently, I learned about a great brand that offers fun, easy to use gardening kits that the whole family can enjoy. From expert gardeners to novices like me, Sproutbrite can help transform your yard or garden plot into a sustainable paradise brimming with beautiful wildflowers, savory herbs, and even Heirloom vegetables.

Place coffee filters at the bottom of small pots to allow drainage but keep soil in.

I have heard that placing saucers of stale beer around the garden will attract and kill slugs.

Keep up on watering your plants and make sure they are getting the light they require. Every plant is different.

I don't have any tips or tricks, but would love to know some as well. We just got a house in Oct 2016 so I would love to plant some flowers and have a nice yard with pretty flowers as well. (: thanks

Gardening is one of my very favorite things to do! My tip is to try winter sowing in containers. Works very well for seeds that need a stratification period.

My tip is ...when we plant peas and beans, I continue planting a few extra seeds every other week...so we can continue to get our harvest all through the fall too!

I use dried up crushed egg shells around my plants to nourish and keep slugs away! Works like a charm!

My tip is that if you are growing lettuce you should put some used tea leaves around the spot you plant them. This keeps any moles away.

I don't have a green thumb for gardening. Remember to water. I would like this for my kids. I think trying a garden would be a learning experience for them and would be fun.
