Grow a Pizza Garden

This step-by-step
gardening guide will help children learn how to successfully grow tomatoes, basil, oregano,
peppers, and onions. They will then learn how to make pizza sauce with these homegrown
ingredients and add it to a pizza. Simple, easy to follow recipes teach kids (with adult help) how
to make a pizza themselves. With tips along the way, kids can get their hands dirty planting,
caring for, and harvesting their own vegetables and herbs. A big garden is not required, only a
patio or balcony with a few pots will be enough space for growing. The tastiest foods are the
ones that are homegrown, so let's get started gardening!

Benzee gives children step-by-step instructions on how to grow each item until it is time for harvesting. After the harvest, it's really fun as you carefully follow the instructions to make the sauce and prepare everything you will need to assemble your pizza. … He details everything so well that it's impossible to get it mixed up. I strongly encourage you to consider Grow a Pizza Garden for your children who are old enough to learn the responsibility of using a stovetop and oven.
