A Joyful Noise: Simply Living
• Feb. 6, 2009 - New Adventures!
| Ok, I'm going out on a limb here. I've been noticing the higher cost of food stuffs lately and doing some late night research. Being an eternal gardener, I have decided to try something new-to-me. This spring our backyard will be wearing a new look...Square Foot Gardening (Google these words for some pictures). I know it's probably an old concept for many. But I've never tried it. So off I go on another journey to juicy red tomatoes and mile-high bean stocks! ha! I have depleted most of the books from the library on the subject and am now searching seed catalogs for new offerings. I have also found a site about using old car tires stacked up and filled with dirt that works for potato hills. When the plants are mature, you just lift off the tires...and violla...there's potatoes growing in the mound. Tune in again tomorrow....for the rest of the story! ha! If you have any suggestions or other great ideas...my garden and I would love to hear about them. Spring IS coming, right? |
