Go Green with your own Back Porch Veggie Garden
There are two ways. One way is to have your very own little green garden right at home. I'm not talking about the kind you plant in the yard, I'm talking about the kind on your back porch. The kind you can put a few plants and herbs in some pots and a small bed or even do a raised garden bed. Here's more about having a Simple Raised Bed Garden Read this guide, How to Start a Back Porch Vegetable Garden or even this one A Vegetable Garden on my Back Porch
It may be a little late in the game this year, but next year I believe I may just start my own little back porch vegetable garden by using pots and some small beds. I hope the ideas above help to get you started on your green garden too! Happy Gardening!
