Growing our own fresh fruits and vegetables is one of my favorite pastimes. Sometimes growing your own food is a requirement for survival and not just a pleasant hobby.
Tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, herbs, lettuce, and greens can all be grown inside of your home with a little bit of knowledge, the right supplies, and some tender loving care.
My adventure in growing food indoors began this year when the pandemic hit, and I realized that I needed to up my game when it came to growing our own food. I am not new to the home production scene, but suddenly I was driven to make food production more than a hobby.
In this video, we review the basics of indoor gardening, setting production goals, and give you a feel for our progress growing food inside of our home.

You are so encouraging. I’m thankful for you. Great information as usual!
I would like to grow inside but electricity is very expensive in my area so it would be diminishing returns for me.
Taking plants in and out everyday could stress them out
I’m wondering if that plastic is safe for food growing?
10+
I love how wonderfully informative this video is.
Are you concerned at all with the chemical content of the containers you’re using? We have avoided an indoor garden because of the bpa and other chemicals in most plastic containers.

Mold?
Use mirrors cut electricity cost
I will do that too in 2021. But with a closed shelf.
I love your videos, I love your passion and expertise. Where I get hung up is with prepping you are concerned about survival (i.e prolonging your life), yet you use the cheapest of Chinese BPA materials, known cancer causing carcinogens to hold your food. I get that money is tight for everyone, but the cost for your whole set up why not spend a few more dollars and get something BPA free? Its like going for a mile long jog and then having a cigarettes' at the end of the jog.
What are you growing so you can make your bread. (In the sandwich)
