Gardening Facts: Why It's Worth Growing Baby Greens


I have some friends, non-gardeners who used to think of growing baby greens as some kind of side activity designed for people with a lot of free time. Well, anyone can have a misapprehension, right? Of course, after learning a few facts about the benefits of growing baby greens, most of them have changed their mind. Growing baby greens is easy, simple and useful. If you’re still not convinced, you may want to consider four main advantages of growing baby greens listed below.       


Growing Baby Greens is More Useful than You Might Think

Know What You Grow

Having control over what you eat is a wonderful thing. What’s more, it’s become a necessity. I guess you have some information about the dangers of GMO foods or processed foodstuffs.

If not, you came to the right place, since a whole section of my blog page is devoted to GMO food and why you should avoid it big time. I strongly advise you to read it because you’ll find out some amazing facts about GMOs.

So, that said, growing your own baby greens is all about knowing what you eat. As I see it, it turns out to be a great head start these days. Eating healthier food means that you’ll wave your doctor from a decent distance, but not go to see him. In terms of growing micro greens, there are three more positive aspects that I wanted to share with you. Let’s start with your family’s health.  

Improve Your Family’s Health

Growing micro greens in your outside garden is beneficial in many ways. One of them surely refers to improving your own and your family’s health.

Taking care of super healthy, tasty green dwarfs is also a family-friendly activity that allows kids to take part in garden work and make friends with nature from their earliest days.

Enjoy Fresh and Better-tasting Food

What can be more beautiful than taking out your own grown baby lettuce or baby spinach varieties from the garden soil, washing and putting them into a big bowl of salad mix? Yum, yum!

You all know how grocery bought leafy vegetables and greens love to wilt and spoil before you have a chance of cooking or using them to make a garnish.

Well, my experience with this is quite different thanks to one thing – I decided to grow my own baby greens and that’s why I can always enjoy fresh and better-tasting food compared to food bought in a supermarket or grocery.    

Save Money on Groceries

Speaking of groceries and supermarkets, I assume you also found that both are getting expensive these days. Therefore, if you’d like to save some money on groceries, you should grow your own baby greens and wait for your wallet to thank you for that.

If you don’t believe me, just try to calculate the yearly costs of what your family spend on vegetables and fruits a year and see for yourself. Now, imagine if you could grow all that! Or better, stop imagining, purchase top-quality seeds and start your own organic garden.
