Grow your own Sprouts – a simple and fun project to grow something to eat! Choose from several types of sprouts that can be used fresh or sauteed. Be sure to use proper methods to prepare the seed prior to starting. Pick up this free information or click here. One note is that this does require a lot of water. My tip would be to capture the water used at each rinsing for watering plants!
