Winter Breakfast Lunch Dinner From Our Basement Garden Summer Preserves EcoFlow Powers It All
It's the middle of a Canadian winter, but our garden never stops. In this video, we're sharing a full day of how our family eats from the garden year-round, from our basement grow room to preserved summer harvests to fresh indoor-grown vegetables.
We'll show you:
🌱 Our indoor garden setup with grow lights running on off-peak power
🍆 Hand pollinating eggplants, peppers & zucchini indoors
🫘 How we preserved beans from last summer's harvest
🍳 Cooking breakfast, lunch & dinner, all powered by battery
❄️ Winter life in Toronto, shovelling snow & greenhouse maintenance
🍅 Harvesting fresh cilantro & micro dwarf tomatoes in February
Growing your own food isn't just about fresh vegetables, it's about building resilience, independence, and knowing you can feed your family no matter what.
