Last time I told you some of our participants were interested in growing Salad Bowl Gardens to share with others. Several have been planted to distribute to some older apartment dwelling folks.

I started my own about 6 weeks ago. They are doing well.
Salad Bowl Garden
I have delivered 10 gardens to neighbors and friends.

Last year I grew several pots for my family. We ate all summer from our little salad bowl gardens.
With just a pot, some soil and a few seeds you also can help feed your own family and even share with a few others. What a great idea for young kids to begin gardening and learning to help and share with others.
What a wonderful gift for teachers or others. Grow in a decorative pot, add a cute pair of gardening gloves, a bottle of salad dressing and you have a wonderful gift!
