Tire Gardens

Well after collecting tires, Erin staked about 5 stacks and then placed rocks around them so they just look like a garden in a rock wall. Helene and I filled them with compost, cinder and dirt. I planted parsley and cuban organo and Helene planted a ton of other seeds. We have started on the next set which are the BIG tires. We are going to stack a small tire in the center of the big one and make a tiered garden bed. Maybe put a coffee plant in the center and herbs around the base. Papayas are beginning to set fruit. And we now have 10 pineapples plants in the garden.

I love the idea of recycling and reusing...........our garden beds were made using wooden slats as edges from old wooden jalousies when we changed them to glass....
We've finally had a few good showers, but can use more........!
