I have just started again with carnivorous plants . They fascinate me and I hope will help reduce the summer flies we get here. I bought both plants and seeds . I am in France so it took some research but in the states you have plenty of options. The book the savage garden is well worth reading . Sorry I can’t work out how to post a picture , the joys of being an old technophobe lol

Good morning. I work on a city farm and am in the early stages of trying to grow fresh crops for Food banks here in the UK. I've noticed in the past that getting children involved and keeping them motivated to try growing at home I've needed to grow things that germinate easily and can be harvested relatively quickly. I've grown rocket, basil and mixed salad leaves. I've expanded this to edible hanging baskets in the past with tomato and chilli plants once people are motivated. Any tips for keeping people motivated and other easy to grow things ?

Thanks
