Gardens, office and a chicken waterer turned planter

Here's a re-purposed chicken waterer that failed. I painted it with acrylics and sealed it, but I think a Rust-oleum type paint might be better.

And with petunias

Richard has been working on the office....

He stapled more bags to the ground level bags to compensate for bag breakage and top provide a water barrier for the wall. The two by fours will be filled with more gravel and the straw bales set on top. In the front we will do E-bags and windows to utilize the south solar gain.

And the gardens....

Hemp sprouts showing.

Our personal garden is going slow. Only one of the three sisters has come up--the beans.
