Thank you all so much for your patience, between my blog going down this weekend and the scope of this project I wasn’t sure it would ever be finished in time- but it is!! And I’m SO excited to share what Moorea & I have been working on!


Four Little Pots is an invitation to get passionate about food, and to get your hands dirty in the process! It’s a challenge- you grow dill, basil, lavender and mint this summer (in the complete package everything is provided, you just need four little pots) and the ebook will guide you through with stories about how I got into “slow food”, information on how to take care of your little plants, and recipes for when it’s time to eat! To be exact:
Four Little Pots is a beautifully illustrated eBook packed with stories, tips and recipes that’s designed to look amazing on a home printer.
Four Little Pots is a guided micro gardening & cooking project, no garden required.
{For a limited time} Four Little Pots is a package in the mail with the four types of seeds used in the project: dill, basil, mint & lavender.
(If you’re subscribed in a reader, please click through to see the secure purchase options available through paypal)


This package is for people who may already be gardening with these herbs or for people who would like to buy started plants instead of waiting for their seeds to grow, or for people who just want to try out some new recipes.
The eBook Package Contains:
The Four Little Pots eBook for direct download (no waiting!) complete with:
- Full original illustrations by the lovely and talented Moorea Seal
- Stories about why I’m passionate about slow food & my first kitchen garden
- Instructions on how to plant, grow, care for, harvest and cook with your kitchen herb garden
- Two recipes for each type of herb I recommend growing, from the decadent (homemade, no machine, mint ice cream) to the simple (a wonderful basil chevre sandwich)



This package is for people who would like to get a little snail mail too! The package of seeds is a gift from me to you, you just pay for the postage – but it’s only available until the packages run out.
The Complete Package Contains:
1. The Four Little Pots eBook for direct download (no waiting!) complete with:
- Full original illustrations by the lovely and talented Moorea Seal
- Stories about why I’m passionate about slow food & my first kitchen garden
- Instructions on how to plant, grow, care for, harvest and cook with your kitchen herb garden
- Two recipes for each type of herb I recommend growing, from the decadent (homemade – no machine – mint ice cream) to the simple (a wonderful basil chevre sandwich)
2. A handmade package in the mail from Kyla, containing the seeds you’ll need to start growing!
Please Note: Most countries are fine with accepting seeds for sowing in the mail, but some are not. If you live in Australia or another country that has an import ban on seeds, I will still incur shipping cots in sending them out to you (even if the package is returned) so I won’t be able to offer refunds on the shipping if this happens.
Thank you so much for considering being a part of our project!
As a thank you I’ll be giving away one copy of the ebook- you can enter up to three times by (1) commenting, (2) sharing Four Little Pots on twitter, or (3) blogging about it, just share the links in a comment here =)
[contest is now closed]
Please let me know what you think of the project- Moorea & I can’t wait to hear your thoughts!

You are amazing.
I tweeted here: http://twitter.com/pixie658/status/13470316683
I even shared it on Facebook and in my Google Reader because you are just THAT awesome. ;)
I think this looks really cute!! I love growing my own herbs!!

What a cute idea! It looks like you worked so very hard on this!
.-= Elizabeth´s last blog ..The scariest thing that happened to me today =-.
Looks great Ky! I bought and downloaded my e-book today :) I’m excited for you! (and to get the mail package and start planting!)
Kyla, this is amazing!!!!! A wonderful idea wonderfully created! Clap, clap, clap, clap, clap…

Wow, what a great idea and it perfectly lines up with the book I’m reading now, Animal,Vegetable, Miracle. Gardening is something I really want to get into eventually, but I want to get the inside of my house taken care of first and at this point my dogs would just tear anything up that I planted. Getting them trained is on the to-do list also. :) I thought starting with a kitchen herb garden would be the first thing I attempt, but I don’t know if now is the right time. I’ll seriously consider checking out the e-book though!

Pretty sure as soon as I’m up and out of here and an apartment is set up, I will be purchasing this. It will be a great project!
Congrats Kyla :)
Very awesome, Kyla. :) Consider it tweeted! I’m sure this will be a huge success.
.-= Kiley´s last blog ..Things I hate that others seem to love. =-.
Kyla! I am so very proud of you! What an awesome project. :)
I can’t participate, but I’ll try and remember to mention it later on my blog :) Nevertheless it’s a great idea, Kyla!
.-= Charlie´s last blog ..The Story Of The Boyfriend =-.
Awesome! I just ordered this. And I’m glad I just found your blog from Moorea! I’m going to add yo to my google reader.
what a fantastic idea! i started a garden in my mom’s backyard and it’s so rewarding to see the tomtato plants, spinach and lettuce start to come up! also planted white onions, peppers, peas…with more going down this weekend (weather permitting!)

what a fun and cute idea! I just bought the kit and its adorable – can’t wait to get the snail mail!
I just commented on your most recent post, but I had to come back to this one to just say how much I adore this project you came up with. I just started my own little potted herb garden on our front patio a few weeks ago, and I’d love to have the eBook to go along with what I’m already growing. If you still have copies left, I’m going to have to buy one!
.-= Samantha´s last blog ..Month One + New Challenges =-.

What an absolutely DARLING idea. I just love it, and am so pleased that it’s your new business venture! Wonderful, wonderful stuff. :) xx
.-= Jen´s last blog ..Wardrobe Wonderings =-.
This is such a fantastic idea! And it couldn’t have come at a better time… I just started a windowsill herb garden of my own, with seedlings that I smuggled to the prairies from my father’s greenhouse in Ontario! So far, my plants are doing great… except for the chives, which keep getting their tops nibbled off by my kitties!
I can’t WAIT to get my Four Little Pots seeds in the mail! I live for Lavender Lemonade, and couldn’t be more excited to make my own!
.-= Emily´s last blog ..Day off =-.
This is absolutely amazing!!! I really want to partake and hope it is still available next week when I get paid! Either way, this is a fabulous idea (sorry I’m just now looking, my life has been so hectic!!!) Wow. This must have taken SO MUCH TIME, what a wonderful thing you are doing. You are such an inspiration. Hey, so how long with the eBooks be available if I miss out on the package part? Thanks for doing this, super cool! <3
.-= Lisa´s last blog ..Fridays in Focus: {Tomorrow is always fresh.} =-.
Oh Lisa, you’re such a sweetheart! The eBook will be around indefinitely, only the packages are limited in quantity =)
What a great idea! I’m so proud of you and the great work you’ve done on this. I don’t know if I can grow these in an apartment though but I hope so!
This looks so incredible Kyla! I want to try! Let’s hope I don’t kill my plants lol.
.-= Liz´s last blog ..Aloha! =-.
I absolutely LOVE this! Cannot wait to get started. Any way I can get another package of Clodhoppers?? Those are so addicting and amazing!
.-= Becky´s last blog ..Waldi in the Snow =-.
I love it! I just purchased the kit for a friend and her husband. I am going to surprise them with it. They were talking about growing herbs, and they are about to have a baby, so I know this will make them squeal a little.

Oh what a great project, Kyla! Good for you!!! Ordering mine now – I wanted to attempt to grow some things on my patio again this year. Last year I attempted tomatoes and cucumbers. Neither went over too well, maybe your e-book will help me!
Love the idea!
Such a smart and cute idea. The mint ice-cream recipe seems worth the buy. Best wishes with four little pots.
