YesThere have been many plants grown in space stations in orbit around Earth. There is a difference, however. Gravitropism, the response of plants to gravity that encourages plants to push roots deep into the soil doesn't happen in space. Therefore the root structures end up being more like a sphere than having a deep tap root.

You will need a garden space. If you live in an apartment, you can usually rent space at a nearby garden centre. You will also need a spade, a hoe, potting soil and seeds available at Canadian Tire www.canadiantire.ca. You will also need stakes if you are growing tomatoes to allow the vines to grow up. http://www.wikihow.com/Grow-a-Tomato-Plant
