Take Your Garden With You

totes with tomato cagesMy wife and I lived in a house for 45 years with a large garden in the back yard area, We loved to garden and enjoy the produce that we grew each summer. As we became older and had to move into a high rise apartment, with a outdoor balcony, we decided to still enjoy a smaller but productive garden out on the balcony of our 16th floor apartment. I purchased 12 plastic containers and 12 bags of black earth soil. Then I purchased some small tomato plants from a nearby nursery, some lettuce, onion, and radish seed. After planting and watering on a daily basis, our garden started to grow and we are now enjoying the fruits of our labor.

Thanks for sharing. I have been wanting to get a container garden started for myself. This has inspired me to get working on it.

I love this idea! I started my vegetables in tiny pots in my apartment but they are need of bigger pots now! I know that the dollar store sells these tubs too!
