We at Zenith Holland hope this "Recipe for Seed Gardening" will help you with a great project for kids to get them excited about growing plants and creating their own gardens.
Ingredients:
Directions:
Always be sure to read your seed packet first for best results.
Some Tips: Soil should remain moist, not soggy. As plants grow, they may need to be transplanted into a larger container or acclimated to the outdoors then planted into the garden. * Try using egg cartons, plastic muffin or produce containers and other recycled items to sprout your seeds. Use your imagination and have fun with it!
