Stevia

 
Well, I recently came across a natural sweetner called stevia. The plant grows well here in Arkansas, so I decided to make it my experimental plant this year in my small kitchen garden. I have two plants started and can't wait till it gets big enough to harvest some branches and dry the leaves and grind them to a powder and do a taste test. It claims to be three times sweeter than sugar cane. Time will tell!

  1. Hey, that's interesting. I've got some Truvia which I believe comes from the Stevia plant so I will be interested in your results.
