Quantcast Vegetarian Star“Two And A Half Men” Jennifer Taylor Organic Garden Tips

'Planet 51' Los Angeles Premiere

Move over Michelle Obama!

The First Lady of the White House isn’t the only woman to show off her home grown greens.

Jennifer Taylor, the actress who is Charlie Sheen‘s love interest on Two and a Half Men, has revealed to EcoStiletto she tries to be greener by tending to an organic garden, which makes it so much easier to eat better at home.

“It takes a conscious effort because it’s so much easier to cook crap that’s nowhere near green. It takes a lot of effort. I’m a big planner and list maker. I live out of my little agenda. I prepare for dinners a couple of days in advance because I know that I can’t just grab something off of the shelf as I’m going home.”

“I think it’s important to eat clean and simply and just do something. Gardening, recycling, carrying reusable water bottles—every little thing helps. If everybody did one little thing it would really help.”

Need some advice for growing your own?

Jennifer gives the following tips:

  1. Wear gloves. I always forget.
  2. Use your coffee grinds and pickle juice as fertilizer. Gardenias love pickle juice!
  3. Soapy water in a spray bottle is a great natural pesticide for your fruits and vegetables.
  4. Don’t be afraid to prune a lot. The plant will grow back bigger and stronger.
  5. Get the kids involved. We let Jake pick his own seed packets, and he’s responsible for watering his plants. He recently planted a sunflower and was amazed at how big it grew!
