Growing and eating your homegrown produce with friends and family is one of the many joys of summer. However, some crops take a lot of planning and require a long growing season. Thankfully, salad does not, and if sown now, you could be sharing a delicious and refreshing meal within just a month.
Spring and early summer are always busy times in the garden, but sowing a few salad crops can be quick and easy. Growing well in pots and containers, you do not need a separate vegetable patch to grow a salad garden, as these shallow-rooted crops can thrive in surprisingly little soil.
