Plants not only make your home more comfortable, they can even have a positive effect on your health. You can easily plant so-called superfoods such as cress, mint or sunflower seeds in your own garden or even on the windowsill. Growing fruit and vegetables in your own garden on the balcony is also a trend. Gardening has even been scientifically proven to be relaxing and healthy. Exercising in the fresh air ensures good circulation and the harvest makes you happy.
Microgreens:simple, tasty, healthy
The advantage of microgreens is that they do not require a lot of space and maintenance. Even without green fingers and fertilizer, the plants grow within two to three weeks and can be harvested accordingly quickly. The domestic harvest not only has a high content of vitamins and minerals, but also tastes very good, for example as a topping for salads, bowls and smoothies.
Garden in a box:growing vegetables in your own raised bed
Why stay on the ground when you want to go really high? Raised beds are trendy:many gardeners raise their beds one floor higher. Now that the warm summer months are upon us, you can equip your own garden or even the balcony with a raised bed of the right size so that you can plant your own favourites. From vegetables such as zucchini or radishes to delicious berries and various herbs.
Urban gardening:get out of town, into the garden! If you don't have the space at home, but still feel like gardening, you can rent a vegetable garden. More and more cities are offering green spaces for 'urban gardening'. The desire for a healthy lifestyle, sustainability and environmental protection can be fulfilled here. What could be nicer than to alternate between the vegetable garden and flowers in your own garden after a stressful working day?
