  • Here is my tea pot fountain in full bloom. 7
  • We drilled a a hole in the tea pot and then threaded it. We attached flanges to a solid concrete block to support both the tea pot and the gold pan. The block is heavy enough to support the weight of the unit underwater. 5
  • We then built a support for the gold pan and dropped the unit into the whiskey barrel. We added a fountain pump and inserted tubing up through the tee on the bottom of the pipe that supports the tea pot and into the tea pot. 1
  • Add water and your done! The unit is free standing so it can be leveled and no holes are drilled in the whiskey barrel. I put it all away every winter and take it out and set it up in the spring. 1
  • Last year we poured a concrete base that the whiskey barrel sits on so it doesn't sink into the dirt. 1

  • This is what it looked like for a whole year after we moved in: brown, ugly, and cold. AND a cluttered desk.

  • Step 1: pick out the very best tomatoes for seeds that will make the very best tomatoes. 1
  • Step 2: scoop the guts into a jar. Fill with 1/4 cup water and leave to ferment in a warm place.
  • Step 3: rinse off the seeds, dry and store for next spring.

How to Save Heirloom Tomato Seeds

Saving heirloom tomato seeds brings back those memories of science classes. The seeds can't be just scooped out and dried, they need to be removed with all the slimy tomato guts and left ...»
to ferment. A little gross factor and lots of fun makes this a great project to do with kids.
