My Mustard Greens

I am trying to include as many greens to my diet as I know just how good they are if you want to have good nutrition.

As I do not have a great deal of space, I grow all my veggies and most herbs in containers - this allows me to make sure that they are all getting good organic soil as well as the organic nutrients that I add such as worm castings and worm tea - as well as a nice sunny position.

So far, I have the following growing nicely:

Heritage Kale which can get up to two meters tall.

Then there is my curly kale.

My beetroot is grown for the leaves which are also very nutritious.

And last but not least, my mustard greens which are really coming along nicely.

In addition to the above, I have spinach, celery, italian parsley and sweet basil as well as spring onions.
It is quite amazing how by picking a few leaves off my greens each day, I can make a salad or stir fry and know that I am eating organic food that will nourish my body - and all in containers !
