Garden of Dreams

Gardens that inspire me. I'm new to gardening. I grew my first official garden in 2010 - a small raised bed with a few vegetables and herbs. I want gardens/flower beds all around my yard. We live on a little hobby farm in north-central Minnesota and we're striving to be as self-sustainable as possible in this crazy, busy world.

Tree stump as flower pot.

TUTORIAL: newspaper pots to sow seeds in and get them started. The pots are super easy to make, free, and earth friendly. And once your seedlings are old enough to move out on their own you just pop them into the ground -- paper pot and all.

Sharyn Tormanen just be sure to really use a metal one if you store it outside. We did a nice thick rubbermaid for ours and the squirrels ate right through it

Kara Sharp Great way to have an herb garden in a small space, or without a yard! That's us after we move end of the month.

Pretty scraps of yarn for the birds to use in their nests.
