Start small with easy herbs like basil and mint, then expand to vegetables like tomatoes and peppers. Even a sunny windowsill can yield fresh ingredients that taste infinitely better than store-bought, and there's something deeply satisfying about eating food you've grown from seed.

βThis is the first year Iβve ever had a garden, as well as the first time Iβve ever grown any vegetables/herbs whatsoever. I researched so much and so far itβs doing great! I even did my peppers, gardeners delight and super steak tomatoes from seed and despite almost killing them while hardening off they survived and are producing. So far I have harvested strawberries, lettuce, dill, and beans but I canβt wait to start picking some tomatoes, peppers, and zucchini. I couldnβt be happier :β)β
βThis year I've been learning about plants and tried out some vegetables and herbs - first experience of growing my own. This time last year my garden was all weeds. My friend designed and made me 5 small raised beds; I?ve gown mixed salads, garden peas, radish, spinach in it and now have onions, winter cabbage and turnips that are almost ready for harvesting. I?ve also grown potatoes, runner beans and French beans mixed into my flower beds; they did well, once the snails backed off.β
