Convincing teenagers to put down their phone and dig in the flowerbeds may seem like a long shot. But if provided the opportunity, the right tools and encouragement, they might find they love gardening.  Many plants can grow in containers. Here are some benefits of gardening for teenagers. 

Whether flowers or vegetables, caring for plants helps teenagers develop responsibility. They also gain a sense of accomplishment and self-confidence as they raise new green shoots into full blooming beauties. Teen gardeners will get to experiment and learn what is best for each plant, experiencing the benefits of their efforts over time. 

Gardening is good for psychological well-being. Gardens have been shown to reduce stress and depression, as well as promote productivity. Taking a break from electronics and social media can also improve teenagers' attention. Research shows that spending just a few minutes outdoors, surrounded by grass, trees, and other plants can boost a teenager's ability to focus and concentrate.

Outdoor time promotes exercise. Gardening offers fresh air, sunshine, and exercise. Sowing seeds, planting seedlings, and deadheading flowers require movement which translates to some exercise. Teenagers are likely to become so absorbed in their work that they don't even realize the physical aspect of gardening.

Growing food encourages healthier eating habits. Teenagers that grow their own food are more likely to enjoy eating healthily. Tasting the fruits of their own efforts often inspires them to eat more of the items they grow themselves. Teaching teenagers about the nutritional benefits of the plants they grow will empower them to make wise and tasty food choices for life. 

A. Plant care builds up responsibility. 

B. And gardening doesn't need much space.

C. A sense of responsibility matters to teenagers. 

D. Plants are often used as a tool to help improve mental health. 

E. Parents may find that their couch potato enjoys growing actual potatoes. 

F. These benefits are especially good for teenagers who avoid physical activity. 

G. And harvesting is an excellent way to help teenagers know the source of their food.
