    We’re doing a science theme for the rest of June on Periscope and today we showed you how we’re regrowing romaine lettuce and green onions! For us, the romaine lettuce is just for fun, but the green onions are something we recommend to regrow. There’s no need to buy green onions ever again! Just snip off what you need and you have fresh green onions whenever you need them.

    My mini chef shows you how to trim them. We trim them with a generous amount on the bottom so they can stand on their own and have a good root system. You don’t need any dirt. Just a fun little container with some water. Make sure you change the water out every few days, so it doesn’t get funky. Hooray, now you have an endless supply of green onions!

    I let my mini chef cut using her Curious Chef Knife. It’s a great first knife for kids!
