  • Start A Victory Garden One or More Herbs At A Time

    August 19th, 2008 by markdownmom

    Okay, you have decided that this is the last time you are going to watch your store bought herbs turn black and slimy in the refrigerator. You know that herbs really kick-up a dish from good to WOW. And when you went to the store you had good intentions of making that special savory dish, but the car broke down, and you had to work later than expected, plus when you came home you almost had to leap frog into your house because of all the toys, clothes, and other clutter that the kids left behind and did not pick up.

    Well, how can you cook from scratch when you’re absolutely worn out? So, by the time you find yourself in the mood again, well-l-l, let’s say, the ingredients could not wait.

    Now, one answer to this dilemma is to have a greenhouse window installed in your kitchen for $1500, or buy the Aero-Grow™ for $149, but what if you don’t have the room or the money for this? You can recoup the initial investment of a Prepara Power Plant from Napapstyle at $40, that’s less than 15 store bought herbs, and you don’t have to buy special pods to grow, simply plant the seeds of your choice, add water and watch them grow. Space-saving, the Prepara Power Plant has a small footprint of 8¾”x2¾x7″.
