Now I know what I can do with all of those old snow skis in my garage! Very cool planter. Thanks to Larry over at Scroll Trellis for submitting this image of the project he made for the guys at the MN Salvation Army Rehab Center for Men.

A great blog about the evolution of one family's love for Straw Bale Gardening and each other! This one is a tear jerker, so grab a tissue. I've shared it because it truly shows the value of gardening as a family, and how this method can benefit those without the time and physical ability to tackle a traditional soil garden.
