Not Quite the Garden of Eden, but It'll Do!

A friend recently was asking me if we had a 'garden' this year. My answer was yes and no. We do not have a traditional garden. I am not a man with a green thumb or the wisdom to grow a normal garden. All the ones I've done that way have been lacking.

I did have a friend once who taught me to 'garden' this way in 55 gallon drums cut in half, filled with dirt, mulch, manure and a bit of fertilizer. We've done this going on 3 years now and things have worked quite nicely actually.

This year we've got 6 containers with Green Pepper, Cucumbers, 2 regular tomatos and 2 roma tomato plants.

Um, um good. Can't wait for veggies to start growin.
