From the Publisher
Indoor Kitchen Gardening Handbook
Growing up in Minnesota, my schools always seemed located across from cornfields and farm stands, but wearily gazing outside during math class was about as close as I got to agriculture. Although my great-grandparents and grandparents were farmers, I grew up in the suburbs, a land of uniform lawns and frozen vegetables, and although I deeply appreciated lazing around in trees and watching bees in the neighbor’s garden, I never imagined I’d be spending any time digging, weeding, or talking about compost. The concept of growing food was about as foreign to me as algebra (which I also believed I’d never use).
After a few decades in the business world, that sense of disconnection to my food remained, although I’d expanded into cooking more meals and using more than one spice at a time. It wasn’t until I was in my early 40s, though, that I actually grew anything more than an appetite.

GROWING EDIBLES INDOORS
Living in a cold climate, I’ve often dreamed of growing tropical fruits in my dining room, imagining a stretch of mangoes and papayas juxtaposed against the snow-sliding-sideways view of a winter afternoon. The kitchen would become a tangle of vines, lush with colorful blooms and quirky vegetables, and I’d be able to pick my breakfast while the morning coffee brews.
Theoretically, with the right conditions, I should be able to achieve at least a fraction of that daydream. For example, it’s likely that I could grow a dwarf Calamondin orange tree, which is reputed to be hearty to 20°F (-6°C), or opt for an avocado tree sprouted from a pit, waiting the four to six years it takes for the new plant to bear its own fruit.
MICROGREENS, SHOOTS, HERBS, WHEATGRASS, SPROUTS, AND MUSHROOMS
There are many types of edibles that are traditionally grown outdoors, but can be planted inside for fun—more on those in Part Three of the book—but there are also several kinds of “crops” that are ideally suited to an indoor growing environment. Specifically, microgreens, pea shoots, sunflower shoots, sprouted grains, and some herbs can thrive inside much better than they could fare in a garden.
These plants are often harvested at an early stage of a lifecycle, and they tend to be more fragile and delicate than what’s growing outside in the garden. Sprouts, in particular, might do very poorly in outdoor conditions, even on a patio or deck, where sunlight early in the growing process might hinder germination.
RADISHES, CARROTS, TOMATOES, AND OTHER CROPS
Many plants with a shallow root system can grow well indoors, such as beets, radishes, some varieties of carrots, lettuces, and with the right conditions, even hot peppers and tomatoes.
With these types of crops, it’s even more important to establish good growing practices as outlined in Part One of this book—proper airflow, a robust indoor soil mix, good lighting, pest prevention, and appropriate containers. With a designated growing area set up correctly, the fun can begin. Although growing mini-crops like pea shoots is a jaunty endeavor, I find deep satisfaction in nurturing indoor vegetables that take time to develop, rewarding me with a plate filled with lush salad greens, sweet carrots, peppery radishes, and other bounty from my kitchen garden.
‘Chioggia’:
This variety features pink-striped stems and an interior that has red rings, looking somewhat like a bulls-eye. They can grow fairly big, though, so if you’re trying to stick to smaller containers, opt for a more modest beet type.
‘Cylindra’:
Also known as ‘Formanova,’ this beet forms a cylindrical, purpletinged root that looks nothing like the beets that most people picture. It needs ample space, so if you want a candidate for your largest pot, consider this quirky variety.
‘Touchstone Gold’:
An orange-yellow exterior and bright yellow interior make this beet a beautiful addition to a garden. The tops can get tall, and the beet is only slightly smaller than a ‘Chioggia,’ but it’s worth creating more space for such a stunner.
‘Zeppo’:
Here’s a smaller beet, and at fifty days from seed to harvest, it’s faster growing that many other varieties. They’re fairly dependable when it comes to germination, but keep in mind that you might get the red juice when cutting them.
