Straw Bale Gardens

Try building a straw bale garden bed. Simply choose a sunny spot&nbsp; and surround the area with straw bales fill with soil and plant.&nbsp; Garden centers can usually help you find someone who will deliver and dump soil in or near by...a good thing to think about when choosing a spot.<br>&nbsp; Really tough soil can transformed by this process. Area will be soft and easily dig able in years to come when the straw decomposes.<br>&nbsp;&nbsp; If you have gophers line with GOPHER wire (not chicken)...If you have back problems you will love it.<br>&nbsp;&nbsp; I like to place the bales on there narrow side making the soil much deeper, but you can go the other way and will need a lot less soil to fill, and gives a great place to sit.<br>&nbsp;Have fun folks and grow something.<br>&nbsp;&nbsp; Roxanne
