Vegetable Gardening

recycled gardens

11 years ago

I am very much into recycling items to grow vegetables in, and flowers as well. I wanted to share some pictures. This is a BIG piece of PVC pipe that I actually was gifted with by a nursery that was using it years ago to grow something in. I have it anchored in a large pot filled with soil, and those are cucumbers growing from it.
