25 Foods You Can Re-Grow Yourself from Kitchen Scraps

πŸ₯¦πŸπŸ…πŸ«‘πŸ₯¬ Re-growing foods from kitchen scraps is an excellent way to reduce waste and save money while enjoying fresh produce. Many common kitchen staples like garlic, onions, and potatoes, can be regrown with minimal effort. To regrow these foods, all you need to do is save the scraps and place them in water or soil.

While some foods will grow quickly in water, others will need to be planted in soil to thrive. Root vegetables like carrots, beets, and turnips can be regrown by planting their cut-off ends directly into the soil. Leafy greens like lettuce, kale, and spinach can also be regrown by placing their cut-off ends in water or soil. By simply following the instructions for each type of food, you can enjoy a fresh harvest of produce without having to purchase new seeds or seedlings.

Aside from the cost and environmental benefits of regrowing your own produce, it can also be a fun and rewarding activity. Watching your scraps grow into healthy plants can be a great way to teach kids about the importance of reducing waste and sustainability. With just a little effort and patience, anyone can regrow a variety of foods in their own kitchen or backyard.
