I sprout some wheat grass once in awhile, but never thought to use it as an Easter decoration. Great idea!

That’s right Heidi, they’re just wheat kernels you use for grinding.

Cara, you can find them at any health food store.

Are the wheat kernels anything special or are they the same as wheat you use to grind up and make bread? Ha ha…I probably sound so dumb but I am pretty clueless when it comes to gardening!! I want to do this though…such a great idea!!

yes, the grass is greener on the other side!
we make these “grassy” heads which a british gal taught me to make, they are so funny, stocking filled with sawdust, eyes, for nose, add mouth and the grass is on top and starts to grow….
fun to clip and style as it grows out and teaches children how to take care of something!

Oh Bek! I actually learned it from Lisa. She’s the master wheat grass grower and painter of ceramic pots.

I’ve done this every year since you taught Lisa Clark how to do it…. I just pulled out my long Easter Grass tins…. thanks for the reminder…
