The debut book in the internationally successful No-Waste Gardening
series, No-Waste Kitchen Gardening is a fun and colorful exploration
of the amazing results you can get by re-growing vegetable cutoffs and
scraps into harvestable, edible plants.
Stop tossing your carrot stumps, loose cilantro sprigs, lettuce and
cabbage stalks, and apple cores in the trash! The expert advice in
No-Waste Kitchen Gardening, gives you all the instruction and tricks
you'll need to grow and re-propagate produce from food waste. You'll
be astonished at how much food waste you can re-grow.
You'll also find some helpful general information about growing indoors
and maintaining your re-grown plants. Two-part photo
instructions show first what the root, chunk seed, or leaf should look
like when you re-plant it, and second, when to harvest or re-plant it in
soil to continue growing.
Edibles big and small, quick to grow and those that take a big longer,
are included, so you can pick and choose which projects to take on. A
few of the many plants profiled include:
-
Green onions
-
Tomatoes
-
Melons
-
Avocadoes
-
Potatoes
-
Carrots
Cut back on your food waste, cultivate your own food easily, and maybe
even share gardening with a new generation, all with the advice from
