First the beds have worked out great. I had never used this process for planting before, we usually built beds out of wood and then filled them with soil but this is working great! We have had a lot of rain and our beds have kept their shape! It is nice because there is walking space between all of the beds, and we didn’t have to spend any money to make the garden.<br />If you don’t have a Farmer Eric there are tons of books you can check out! I like The Essential Urban Farmer by Willow Rosenthal, it is a how to guide for urban farming and The Backyard Homestead: Produce all the food you need on just a quarter acre! By Carleen Madigan. For inspiration, laughs and some tips check out Farm City: The Education of an Urban Farmer by Novella Carpenter. And don’t forget to pick up your Farmers Almanac!! Happy Farming!!Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10576367140453563103noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5891716270069319518.post-447826498698687432011-11-07T15:15:41.803-08:002011-11-07T15:15:41.803-08:00I was wondering about the beds when I saw a pictur...I was wondering about the beds when I saw a picture earlier.
