Leaves you can eat!

Getting ready

lettuce equipment

It will take about 3 or 4 weeks to grow your own lettuce leaves. It is best to grow them in Spring, when the cold weather has passed.

Ask an adult to help you find or buy these things:

  • a large clay flowerpot
  • paints and a paintbrush
  • small stones
  • compost
  • a fork and a trowel
  • lettuce seeds
  • watering can

TAKE CARE– You can't eat the leaves of all plants. Always check with an adult which plant leaves are ok to eat.
