| Sprout Jar Wooden Rack with Jars |
Growing your own sprouts at home is a rather simple project that can provide excellent nutrients at a very reasonable cost compared to purchasing them in your local grocery store. In addition, it is a very compact way to store food in case of an emergency.
What you will need in order to grow your own sprouts:
- A jar in which to grow them. A standard wide-mouth quart size canning jar is what I use.
- You will need to have a piece of mesh cloth that will enable you to drain off the water from the seeds as you rinse them each day. I didn't have any lying around the house, so I ordered mine online.
- You will also need to have a way to keep your jars upside down so they can completely drain, and have some air flow to the sprouts. My very talented husband made a wooden rack for me that holds up to 3 Mason jars and folds flat for storage. You can purchase one from our Marketplace if you wish.
- Then, you will need to have sprouting seeds. I found mine online.
