I can't seem to find a good answer as to why all the plastic boxes and wrappers for produce, but was surprised to read how much water is used for the pre-packaged triple rinsed produce. I will attempt to locate and purchase bulk greens whenever possible.
I am going to replant lettuce and spinach in my garden every 10 days to keep a continuous supply, adding shade netting so that I can grow it successfully during the warmest months. For people with limited garden space, you can grow it in a very small area and even in containers on a deck. A package of seed, for a month of salads costs $1.50 and one plastic box for a night or two, $3.00.
