I heard at a party about this gardening system called Earth Box that grows veggies and flowers to produce tons of crops. I figured I needed a project this Spring so I put on my work jeans and baseball cap and headed down to the local Sloat Gardening Center to check out the products. The Earth Box looked easy enough- had all the pieces in the kit except the seeds and soil- so I bought the kit and headed to our future backyard which has plenty of sunlight.
I planted corn, cucumbers, tomatoes, basil, and green beans. Here are some pics...(I actually planted the garden the end of May.) And I just took some recent pics yesterday so you can see my total success as a farmer. I am pretty happy so far.
