Lifehacker had a great post today about a totally ingenious idea – gutter gardens!
Building a windowbox garden from gutters is such a great space-saving solution. You can position the gutters in just the right location for sun exposure, and can have neatly organized rows of produce growing right on your house!
It would also be so much easier on the back to do all your gardening…planting, watering, weeding, harvesting. No hunching down and crawling under the dirty netting that you have covering your garden so the groundhogs don’t eat everything and getting your crocs full of dirt and earwigs.
Not to mention, getting your lettuce up off the ground might increase the odds that you actually get to eat it before the critters do. I totally love it.
