Quantcast Vegetarian StarJennie Garth “Garden Party” Helps Kids Get Ahead With Lettuce

Jennifer Garner at The Milk + Bookies Event in Los Angeles

Jennie Garth is hosting a regular segment on iVillage called Garden Party, where a different vegetable is featured every month.

Jennie hosted a lettuce party where she encouraged children to make artwork from salads and says the best way to get kids eating healthier is to get them involved with growing veggies in the garden.

Jennie recently featured lettuce and gave a few tips for growing it.

She says lettuce heads should be started indoors and then transferred to the garden at about 11 weeks.

“Leaf lettuce needs to be spaced at least 8 inches apart, but head lettuce needs at leasts a foot. So get a-head and start thinking about growing lettuce with your kids.”
