The feel-good fruits of home gardening
Growing plants is a joy in itself. If they’re edible, even better. Then you literally save the best part for last. See how you can harvest, enjoy and share your home-grown food.
After planting and nurturing, it’s harvest time
Lately, we’ve taken a closer look at the positive side effects of home gardening. First the tactile aspects of seeding and planting, then the well-being drawn from nurturing and seeing plants sprout (links to both at bottom). If you have chosen edible plants, it’s now time to reap the rewards.
Many plants – including chives and tomato – are ideal for harvesting bite by bite (nipping the buds off herbs to delay blooming even prolongs the season). Like giving a meal a day a fresh, green boost.
We love to see our customers get creative with our products. Go for it! But please note that altering or modifying IKEA products so they can no longer be re-sold or used for their original purpose, means the IKEA commercial guarantees and your right to return the products will be lost.
