17 Plants You Grow from Kitchen Scraps

Kitchen Scraps & Growing Plants I love composting all the kitchen scraps I can but when I fill up my compost bin or run low on some vegetables in the garden, using kitchen scraps to grow plants is a great activity. I love using kitchen scraps to start new plants as a fun gardening activity with my son. Every day, we check to see how the plants are progressing. It’s a great way to come full circle on produce we buy at the market together and cook together. Starting your own plants from kitchen scraps is really easy for a gardening nerd like me!
