Gardening in Boxes

By Desmond Jensen

Raised bed gardening and square foot gardening are the gardeners preference of the future. These methods allow for gardening just about anywhere by anyone. A box garden can be placed on a rooftop, a deck, a driveway, a patio, on top of a lawn and even up at waist height on a patio or picnic tabletop.

It is so convenient that more and more people are choosing it every season. Home Gardens To Go offers a variety of boxes from cedar to vinyl. Planter boxes can be placed close to the back door of you home where it is passed by regularly for easy care. Square foot gardens placed in your yard within view of the kitchen window can be watched for wilting plants, deer, and neighborhood dogs and cats.

A box garden right outside your
door is handy for harvesting a dinner salad or herbs for cooking. Fresh organic vegetables are at your fingertips every day. There is no more need to hike out to the farthest point of your yard only to see your traditional garden overcome with tall weeds. There is virtually no weeding in a box garden. You use a special soil mix, not soil from your yard. It is clean, organic, and contains no weed seeds.

Square foot gardening uses less water, less seeds, takes less work, and uses less equipment. All you need is a bucket, a cheap trowel and a pair of scissors for harvesting. Keep these items tucked right into the inside of your box for easy access. If you have never tried gardening, this is the easiest and most sure method for success. If you live in an apartment, put a small box on your deck or patio and get started growing your own organic vegetables. God created the earth to provide all that we need. It is faith building and heartwarming to watch your own seeds grow and produce food.

Gardening is a wonderful skill to learn and to teach children. It also promotes self confidence, self sufficiency and independence.
