I’ve definitely made strides towards becoming more environmentally friendly over the past few years, especially when it pertains to grocery shopping. Though I try to avoid buying produce that comes in single-use plastic, sometimes this is just inevitable. Fortunately, there’s an awesome way to repurpose some of these plastic containers – to start your own seedlings!
When you think about it, clear plastic containers are basically tiny greenhouses. They let lots of light in, and they also retain moisture, which seedlings need in order to thrive. These plastic containers are perfect for starting spinach, some herbs, and other microgreens.
Isn’t it nice to know that you don’t need a designated vegetable garden, greenhouse, or a ton of space to grow your own greens? A few plastic containers, a bit of soil, and some seeds are all you need to enjoy some fresh produce in the comfort of your own home.
