We grow Parsley in the summer, and also I grow him timothy grass in long pots. He adores both. I tried growing the grass inside in the winter but it just went all horrid.

Its def worth it.

We also grow carrots so guess who just loves the tops??

Such a good idea. Might try to do some for the buns. Last time I tried to grow veg, I had some broccoli but the local pigeons ate it all. Rolling Eyes

Yeah we tried veg before and it just wasn't happening Embarassed Its just yesterday I was picking dandelions from the garden and complaining there was only a couple left and my mum was like why don't you just grow things like that in pots for them. I know they like parsley so thats another good one Very Happy Oh yeah I totally forgot about the timmy grass, they love that!

I recently planted some seeds for kale, carrots and pak choi. Got to wait a couple more months before I plant the spring greens.
Thinking about ordering some plantain seeds, where can I get Timothy grass seeds? Didn't realise you could!

Oooh I might look into growing timothy grass too! I was thinking parsley, wheat grass & barley, but I'm going to search for timothy seed too.
