Chia is an annual herb that is a member of the mint family. Its seeds are highly nutritious and contain omega-3 fatty acids, fiber, calcium, iron, vitamin C and a host of other minerals. Consequently, many health-conscious gardeners want to grow the chia at home so they can harvest its nutritious seeds. The chia plant is quite easy to grow in western North America where it grows wild. Once sown in August, the chia can be left to its own devices until the flowers dry and it is time to harvest the seeds. Spread 1/2 inch of sand and 1 inch of aged compost over the soil. Then loosen the soil to a depth of 3 inches with your garden hoe. Turn in the sand and compost as you go. Hand broadcast the chia seeds over the soil.
