At the turn of the millennium, I had cherry tomatoes growing on a window ledge in my room; back then the window ledge was on the outside. The window box sat outside in the cold, when the frost came it would kill the cherry tomato plant. In the summer and autumn I would get many cherry tomatoes. Now I am doing it again. I'm growing plants in my home that produce food.
I have some small tomato plants on my window ledge and this time the window ledge is inside. I may have to polinate the plant myself with a small paint brush but there should be no frost. As long as my heating system stays on, the plant will remain there. It is a small furry leafy shrub but soon it will be weighed down with tomatoes.
I have already figured out how to grow bell peppers inside my home, they're delicious and fresh. I love to eat peppers that grew in my home.
I even planted an avocado in a large pot to see if a small tree would produce fruit. I also want to see if I can keep the tree small.
That is how I have reacted to the inflation of food prices. I'm trying to grow my own food at home.
