About Sill to Supper

Edible apartment living, without the homestead fantasy.

Sill to Supper is a focused field guide for renters who want to grow culinary herbs in limited space and use the harvest in a small kitchen.

Our scope

One continuous job

The site follows three connected problems: creating usable light for indoor herbs, keeping containers watered while away, and drying or storing a modest harvest. We do not mix unrelated kitchen gadgets into a gardening site.

Built for constraints

Every guide considers the rental: limited drilling, shared living space, no outdoor faucet, leak exposure, reversible furniture, and the permanent cost of storing an appliance.

Honest about evidence

The first edition is research-based. It uses primary public guidance and shows selection criteria, but does not pretend that reading specifications is hands-on testing. When original tests are added, the method and date will be stated.

Intentionally excluded

We do not cover balcony structural modifications, electrical work, pesticide advice, medical or pet-toxicity claims, canning, fermentation, meat dehydration, or uncertain plant identification.
