The next time you purchase produce at the grocery store, remember that you can easily regrow leeks at home.  Leeks are a type of vegetable and they are in the same family as onions, garlic, chives, scallions, and shallots.  They have a mild, onion-like flavor. You can serve leeks raw in a salad or boiled in a soup or stew.  Leeks will sprout roots in a few days if you place them in water.  Follow the steps below to grow endless amounts of leeks.

3) place the white bottoms in a shallow glass of water to regrow leeks
4) wait a week & leeks will have regrown 5-6 inches

Tips: change the water out frequently for best results, the leeks can also be planted in a pot with dirt and placed in your window or outdoor garden, after harvesting leak stems place them in a cup of water inside the fridge to slow the wilting process. A wonderful zero waste organic fertilizer to encourage growth is EarthPods Root & Plant Starter.
