Grow Fresh Sprouts in a Jar

Join Broward County Master Gardener Volunteers for a fun, hands-on workshop and discover how easy it can be to grow fresh sprouts right in your kitchen!

During Grow Fresh Sprouts in a Jar, participants will learn what sprouts are, how they differ from microgreens, and the simple steps needed to safely grow them at home. We’ll cover proper seed preparation, soaking, rinsing and draining, harvest timing, and how to recognize signs of spoilage.

Participants will also see a live sprouting demonstration and start their own jar of sprouts to continue growing at home.

• Learn the basics of growing fresh sprouts
