For a controlled environment garden-grow-boxes keep it real




Nothing takes control of a garden area like garden-grow-boxes and a brick garden patio . The bummer thing about a garden is the mud and weeds that are always present. Controlling this can create a whole different feeling when you enter a garden. A garden patio creates space for a table and chairs or just a wheelbarrow, space is a good thing. Nothing like watching things grow and picking tomatoes from your own garden.

I've experimented with lots of different types of vegetables, in my garden and I love learning more and more each season. In our climate we start picking tomatoes and squash on about the 5th of june and the plants keep producing until august. Thats about the time the folks north of here, like my parents, start to pick their gardens. I go visit them in august and september, just for that reason.

Here the garden-grow-boxes are behind the tree in the picture, but I wanted to show the path that gets you to the garden patio and planter boxes. There is also a creek water feature nearby to add some nice sound to this environment. Wind is a big factor at this location, so we placed the garden planter boxes down wind of the house. This keeps the garden from drying out because of the wind.

block grow boxes

If you're looking for something more permanent try this design. We used Diamond Wall step blocks to create this garden grow box. The funky shape allows them to have a row of berries along the fence and still gives them access to the individual areas. Notice the water sources everywhere. Can't ever have to many options when it comes to water.
