Paul on Feb 09, 2015look up info on a straw bale garden. You don't need to prepare the soil. Grow plants on top, herbs on the side. Just saw this and I'll be trying it this spring.Helpful Reply

Diana reeves on Feb 10, 2015Look up wooden pallet gardening. If you go to business that receive stock on wooden pallets, some of them will just give you the pallets. When you are ready to plant your seeds, just get a good top soil or potting soil. put the soil in the pallets. Then in between the open wooden slates plant you seeds. Keep watered.Helpful Reply
