[quote:Alexander:MV8yMDYzOTI5XzM0NzI2MDAxX0U0OUI5N0Y=] I like this idea and was thinking of putting it on the south side of the garage wall. [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=95TRdFD0IUs&feature=related[/youtube] http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=95TRdFD0IUs&feature=related [i]Thinking outside the box was the theme of this presentation on vertical gardening by horticulturist and director of the Charleston Parks Conservancy Jim Martin. Watch as he gets creative. If you like this video, consider a donation to the Conservancy to support more projects like this. Of buy an Oregon Breather, hang it on your fence or wall and start planting. It's about the same size, has grommets for easy hanging, it's made of a material that allows the roots to get air plus holds some moisture so frequent watering is not required. Find it at verticalgardeningsystems under the category of soft textile pockets, $56.[/i] [/quote]

Eating ones own food from ones own yard is immensely satisfying. There are so many ways to produce one food and this thread is devoted to ways to create small gardens even to growing food in pots inside or on a balcony. My favorite form of gardening is aquaponics where fish are also grown and the water is filtered through the water beds to nourish the plants - which in turn filter the water which is recycled back into the fish tank. Aquaponic units can be any size.
One of the larger ones in Hawaii can be viewed at www.friendlyaquaponics.com
