Growing food on a windowsill

Written By Laura Mathurin

In March I ran a growing food on your windowsill event for Pride in Luton as part of their Sunday social.

We decorated tin cans to create colourful herb gardens, sowed ‘micro cherry’ tomatoes to grow on in a large yoghurt pot and sowed some sunflowers.

You’d be surprised at how easy it is to grow food indoors and how much you can grow. Why not give one of the following a go this year:

  • Leafy greens like lettuce and spinace

  • Herbs - coriander, basil and parsley

  • Nutrient packed microgreens - pea shoots are our favourite

  • Chillies and tomatoes
