MyVeggiePatch

Here’s a bizarre idea: growing vegetables for those that hate going outside. At MyVeggiePatch, you can remotely grow your own vegetables and then have them delivered to your house. You call the shots, how much to water, when to water, etc. The site will give you suggestions based on how your veggies are doing, but for the most part, you’re in control.

I believe this service is only available in the UK, with the cheapest plot table going for $720/year. Prices go up to $1448/year for a transitional-organic plot with five extra veggies of your choice. -ram
