The raised gardens on pedestals, are my favorite way to garden, probably because they are so easy for me. I can sit on a stool or lawn chair and plant, pick or just enjoy the raised gardens. There are eight of them in the back yard. Each one is four by four. They require no stooping or bending or crawling around in the dirt. I appreciate this more than ever this year, since I fell in January and fractured a vertebra in my spine.
I will plant tomatoes, peppers, cabbages, radishes, carrots, broccoli, red beets, onions, beans and all manner of green things for salads. (Kale, collards, lettuce, spinach) Several of the pedestal gardens will be full of flowers and herbs. (Basil, parsley, sage, and thyme) Our main garden will have all these things too. But it is so fun and easy to be able to sit in a chair, right outside my kitchen door, and work on my “Pedestals”.
Bob is building more Pedestal gardens for sale. They will be available towards the end of April. For more info on this project, call or text me. We will have a waiting list for the Pedestal garden.
