Has anyone worked with this? Saving vegetable seeds for sprouting, to literally grow your own vitamins? We know the volume and vitamin content increase greatly by sprouting. Like broccoli. There's time and effort in producing the seed from your own plants, but you get the powerful greens in winter or anytime you don't have greens to harvest.
I save seeds from my own crops, and set aside the seeds from some items for sprouting. And also purchase commercial seeds intended for sprouting. When I used to go backpacking, I would take along a seed sprouter and have fresh sprouts to eat on the trail.
