This is a rather simple vegetable to re-grow. Cut off the base of your celery where all the stalks join about an inch or so about the root while in the grown and leave the base to grow. If you get the stalk from the store you can cut the base of the stalk and put the bottom in a little bit of water root side down to regrow and plant later. Put it in a bowl with a small amount of warm water and place that in direct sunlight. Within a week pr two, leaves should appear & thicken at the base. Transplant it then and you’ll soon have fresh celery! The plants left in the garden should show signs of re-grow within a week as well.

Seed Saving
I collect seed from my spent flowers on an annual basis. I let the flowers finish out their cycle and harvest the heads after they are dry.
Here is a sample of homemade seed envelopes. Just print to the desired size and fill in your information, cut them out, fold, insert seed and seal your little packets. You are good to go for seed swapping your homegrown seeds! You could put a photo or a drawing of the plant in the space too if that’s your fancy. Make them pretty for gifts!
Seed I Collected
I also like to use the little plastic ziploc bags for collecting my seed.
