I have had good luck with getting lettuce and spinach for most of the winter. I do plant some in pots indoors as well.

I just don’t like to buy lettuce and spinach at the store. You never know how it was grown or how it was handled. Even after I wash it I start thinking about the E-Coli outbreaks traced to fresh produce, and it just ruins my appetite. LOL.

Course if I don’t have my own, I will make do the best I can.LOL.

Yeah... once they said "fecal splashing" and described the field conditions where leafy veg were grown... After that food safety class in culinary school, I've tended to grow my own or do without.
