Sprouting


Someone who has never eaten a sprouted seed may wonder why it would be interesting to grow sprouts.
First of all, YES, sprouts can be eaten but unfortunately, it is not really common. You may have tried some sprouted alfalfa in a vegetarian restaurant but that is about it. Well, among vegetarians, vegan, or other groups of people who rely on plant foods, sprouts are part of the diet. Sprouting is indoor gardening that allows you to have fresh organic "baby vegetables" year-round.
