How to Regrow Celery

Have you ever wondered if you can grow celery at home from kitchen scraps? It’s easy and fun! Let’s learn how you can regrow celery with just a few simple steps.

Step 1: Start with the Celery Base

When you have a bunch of celery, cut off the bottom part, which is called the base. This is the part that holds all the stalks together. Place this celery base in a shallow dish or bowl with a little bit of water. Make sure the base is sitting in the water, but not completely submerged.

Step 2: Watch for New Growth

Put the dish in a sunny spot, like a windowsill. Every few days, change the water to keep it fresh. After a while, you will start to see tiny green leaves growing from the center of the base. This means your celery is coming back to life!

Step 3: Plant in Soil

Once you see roots growing from the bottom of the celery base, it’s time to plant it in soil. Find a pot with some soil or a spot in your garden. Dig a small hole and place the celery base in it, covering the roots with soil. Water it regularly to keep the soil moist.

Step 4: Harvest and Enjoy

As your celery grows, you can start harvesting individual stalks. Just cut them off when they are big enough to eat. This will encourage the plant to keep growing, giving you a continuous supply of fresh celery!

Fun Fact

Did you know that celery is mostly made of water? That’s why it’s so crunchy and refreshing! It’s also a healthy snack that you can enjoy with peanut butter or hummus.

Now you know how to regrow celery at home. It’s a great way to learn about plants and enjoy fresh veggies right from your kitchen!

  • Have you ever tried growing something at home, like a plant or a vegetable? What was it, and what did you learn from the experience?
  • Why do you think it’s important to change the water every few days when regrowing celery? How do you think this helps the celery grow?
  • Can you think of other vegetables or fruits that might be fun to regrow from scraps? What would you like to try growing, and why?
  • Celery Observation Journal: Start a celery observation journal. Each day, draw a picture of your celery base and write a sentence about any changes you notice. How tall are the new leaves? What color are they? This will help you track the growth and learn about how plants change over time.
  • Celery Taste Test: Once your celery has grown enough to harvest, try a taste test! Compare the taste of your homegrown celery with store-bought celery. Is there a difference in flavor or texture? Discuss with your family which one you like better and why.
  • Plant Detective: Go on a plant detective mission in your kitchen. Look for other vegetables or fruits that might be regrown from scraps, like green onions or potatoes. Try regrowing one and compare its growth process with your celery. What similarities or differences do you notice?
