Growing Easter Grass

Can you believe Easter is only 2 weeks away? Have you ever grown your own Easter Grass? I remember doing this as a little girl with my mom and it’s such a fun activity to do with your kids and super inexpensive!

To grow your own Easter Grass you will need:
2 Cups wheat
Potting Soil
Container, or plastic liner
saran wrap

Instructions:
Step 1:  Soak your wheat a good 12-24 hours to help give the wheat a jumpstart to SPROUT!


Step 2: Scoop a level amount of potting soil into your container, I put a couple inches in mine. Then get the soil very wet.

Step 3: Then liberally spread the sprouted wheat all over the moist soil. Once this step is complete wrap well in Cling Wrap and put in a warm sunny spot.


After about 2 days watching your grass sprout remove the plastic wrap and watch it grow. Keep the grass moist daily with a good misting of water. This picture is my grass after about 9 days after planting.


This will be darling on any Easter Table or in a little galvanized bucket for Spring!
So this is your week to plant Easter is 2 weeks away!
