It's no secret that I love to grow veggies, fruits, & herbs; "Whatcha growing now?" has become something of a greeting from friends & family. I remember visiting my cousin in early 2020, she was so eager to show off her indoor hydroponic garden bustling with basil, cherry tomatoes & hot peppers. What a warm and lovely sight on that grey winter day! Sadly and unexpectedly, back in December, my sweet cousin passed away and I was gifted her Aerogarden Farm. While difficult and bittersweet, I decided it was going to be put to good use in her memory. So we decided to start off with some fast growers, particularly Bok Choy and some cherry tomatoes. Since mid-February, we've been harvesting Bok Choy weekly, adding to soups, salads, & stir-frys; and sharing the abundance with friends & family. But now it's time to do some quick fermenting and make some Kimchi. While definitely not a traditional Korean Kimchi, it will give you a flavor profile similar to it and it's a great way to use that Bok Choy before it goes bad.
