PLANTING INSTRUCTIONS:
Grow to harvest in the spring or fall because spinach is a cool-weather crop.
Plant in cool, well-drained soil where plants will get 8-10 hours of sun each day.
Loosen up the soil really well before you plant the seeds because spinach roots will
rot if their soil is too soggy.
Plant spinach seeds about ¼ inch deep (just cover them with enough soil so they
won’t get blown or washed away), in rows 1 foot apart.
Thin them to be 4-6 inches apart when the seedlings are about 4 inches high.
Harvest spinach early, as mature plants bolt to seed quickly. Bolding is when they send
up flowers out of the top of the plants and the leaves become too bitter to eat.
Cut off leaves with scissors, a small knife, or just pinch off with your fingernails.

WHY IS SPINACH
GOOD FOR YOU?
Your HEART and blood vessels benefit from the high vitamin K
content of spinach
Eating spinach regularly can help you achieve the recommended
3 cups of vegetables per day and make you feel great and have
lots of ENERGY!
Spinach is an excellent source of carotenoids- the precursors to
Vitamin A which is necessary for good VISION.
Your STOMACH will have better digestion from the fiber found in
spinach
Spinach contains iron, an element needed to carry oxygen to
your MUSCLES. Iron from plants isn't absorbed as well as iron
from animal sources but pairing spinach with a vitamin C rich
food can give your body an iron absorption boost!
