Sowing Project

So while I've been whining about the cold, rainy weather, my 9-year-old nephew Silvan - between school, soccer, kung-fu, guitar lessons, and skiing (there was snow enough last weekend) - was prepping his own summer garden...indoors (see photo). We recently ran a tip on getting kids into the garden, but if it's still just too freaking cold where you live to get things going outside, try doing what Silvan did: Carve out a sunny corner in your house and plant your seeds of choice in mini seeding pots – later, you can just stick them straight into the ground, and they'll biodegrade. Two great options for seeding pots: coconut fiber pots or DIY newspaper ones.
