Vertical garden

Posted by Gregory Amos over 10 years ago

Our relatives in Bogota have a small flat, and love vegetables, so we did this nice vertical garden in less than 2 days.

Urban gardening is trend. Unfortunately, many people lack the space required in order to produce more than two lettuces and some basil. The answer is: go vertical! There are many nice designs on internet, and we were inspired from this one.

As you can see on the pics below, our design is slightly different, with PVC pipes hooked on wood boards. On one side we put 4 beds, on the other side 2 beds connected with ropes so we can plant climbers like tomatoes or beans.

The advantage is that we can still put stuff on the table, while enjoying the new green environment.
