Farmers Use Pee to Grow Food

In Vermont, farmers are using pee to help plants grow. People save their pee in special toilets. Then, trucks take the pee to farms. The pee is cleaned and put on fields to help crops grow better.

This idea is not new. People used pee on plants a long time ago in China and Rome. Now, farmers find that pee can make plants like kale grow twice as big. Pee has good stuff that plants need to grow.

Using pee to grow food is good for the earth. It saves water and helps keep rivers clean. Some people think it's strange, but many are happy to help. They say it's a good way to use something we all make every day.
