My Hubby and I have been playing with back yard gardening. We have a 6 foot privacy fence around a fairly small back yard, so instead of digging up a large part of the yard we have been putting our garden next to the fence therefore eleminating rows. This makes our garden space saving, easy to take care of and we dont have to invest in expensive equipment. The one humourous event we had last year was that our ripe tomatoes keep disapearing. Finaly we discovered that our dogs were eating them. So this year we put our dog run over the garden area where we plant our tomatoes and now we have a rabbit and dog proff tomatoe garden. So if you have critter problem and have a dog run you might want to think about using it to keep your plants safe from critters.
Have a fun garden season.
