Do you live in an apartment, condo, rental house or other small space where you can’t have a full garden? This is me too! I have lived in an apartment with my husband for the past 3 years. And while we have plans of one day buying a house and having a great backyard for me to plant anything I want, this just isn’t a reality for us yet.
So, I have to deal with the space I have. Which is a small patio on the second story of a two bedroom apartment. I never dreamed that I could actually have a garden!
As my husband and I have started a journey to eating real foods, one of the biggest things we have had to change was eating more vegetables. But fruit and vegetables can be so expensive, especially if you want to buy organic and healthy vegetables!
One day I discovered that herbs can be grown fairly easily indoors in small containers. This led me to try and find out what else I could grow in our apartment. And to my surprise, I found out that I could grow an entire vegetable garden on my upstairs patio! Growing my own vegetables has been a great way to save money on healthy foods, and it’s even possible to use a home garden as a tax deduction on your online tax return, especially if you’re the crafty or entrepreneurial type!
I could have herbs, tomatoes, peppers, and even potatoes. All grown in our second story apartment patio! Apartment Gardening is a great resource to get you started growing your own vegetables indoors, in small spaces, on patios, or in containers.

- How to pick which seeds to grow
