Iechris's Vegetable garden

Created on Thursday, 20 Sep 07

My vegetable garden is two clusters of pots in the parts of my back yard that get the most sun. Everything is in pots to protect it from my dogs and because the full sun areas are also not areas where it would be easy to make vegetable beds.

Garden Type: Vegetable | Sun: Full Sun | Soil: Potting Mix
