We love having our own garden. Dave finds working in the garden relaxing as well, so whenever he has a chance to do a little planting, watering, or weeding he’s on it. He usually leaves the picking to me which is perfect because it’s my favorite part!
This post is sponsored by Miracle-Gro and Seed Pods were received.
Being able to pop out into the yard and pick fresh herbs and veggies to include in dinner that evening is fun and delicious. That’s why I am excited to work with Miracle-Gro and their Gro-Ables Seed Pods.
Gro-Ables are seed pods that provide an ideal growing environment for your seed. Each ready to plant seed pod contains growing materials, plant food, and a seed. There are 17 varities of Gro-ables and I selected:
- Cherry Tomatoes
- Globe Tomatoes
- Romaine Lettuce
- Smooth Leaf Spinach
- Zucchini Squash
- Straight Cucumber
- Basil
- Cilantro
- Dill
The Gro-Ables are really easy to use. Simply peel back the label, read the simple directions, plant them, add water, and watch them grow.
I originally wanted to plant these in our garden that does really well every summer. However, winter just wouldn’t leave us here in Cleveland. In fact, even though it is May now I heard the weatherman say recently that we aren’t out of the freezing zone yet. Can you believe it? May and even though it’s been in the 70’s the last few days we are still waiting for that one last freeze.
That’s why I thought it would be fun to bring our gardening indoors this year. I didn’t want to take the chance of losing them the Gro-Ables to frost so I bought some cute pots and set up a window garden in our kitchen.
I think it looks great and is something we have never done before and it’s added a nice touch to our kitchen. As you can see the herbs and veggies are doing great.
While I love having the window garden, once the weather stays warm and that last freeze passes we’ll move the tomatoes, cucumbers, and zucchini outside. I can just imagine them taking over our kitchen! I do think I’ll leave the herbs inside however. They’ve added some pretty color to the kitchen this year and it’s been a nice way to mix things up a bit.
I’ve enjoyed using the Miracle-Gro Gro-Ables Seed Pods and that’s why I’m excited to offer the giveaway below.
