Create an Indoor Vegetable Garden: Fresh Produce Year-Round

During the summer, many campers love visiting local farmers markets for fresh produce. But when winter arrives, options can be limited—especially in cooler climates. Fortunately, creating an indoor vegetable garden in your home or even your RV is a fantastic way to enjoy fresh vegetables all year round! Follow these steps and check out some easy starter kits to kick off your indoor gardening adventure.

Indoor Herb Garden

Easy Vegetables to Grow Indoors

Spinach

Spinach is a great choice for indoor gardening and thrives on a sunny windowsill. Plant spinach in a well-drained pot filled with indoor potting mix. This combination allows roots to avoid excess moisture, resulting in crispy and delicious spinach leaves.

Scallions

Scallions are arguably the easiest addition to your indoor vegetable garden. Simply plant onion bulbs in a pot or gardening tray with indoor potting mix. Find a semi-sunny spot, water regularly, and watch as scallions sprout in no time!

Radishes

Radishes are known for being simple to grow and require less light than most vegetables, making them suitable for north-facing windows. However, ensure you use deep containers since radishes are root vegetables and need ample space beneath the soil.
