Spring Inspiration on a Rainy April

One of my favorite authors and farmers is Eliot Coleman of Four Season Farm.  In fact I have dreamed of turning our smallest greenhouse into a Three Season One.  One of our goals on the farm this year is to show people how to grow vegetables when they don't have a lot of room or good soil.  In years past I have grown lettuce and other greens in rain gutters, peppers in plastic crates, onions, herbs, peas and beans in old water troughs and wash bins.  I am all for making use of what I have so I invite you to stop by this summer and see what's growing and maybe get some ideas for your yard.
