The Great Cardboard Reveal

I am overely excited about getting this cardboard so I can kill grass and make a garden! Yes, I know not that interesting but I am truly thankful.

It has been a couple years since I have gardened. Oh, I have thought about it, talked about it, and even made a few attempts at it but I have not been physically able to do it. Now that I have figured out when and what causes my fibromyalgia to flare I feel I am able to get back to gardening this year.

I can grow acres and acres of green beans but everything else has been hit or miss through the years. I am excited about getting serious and learning how to grow my own food. So, all I can say is welcome to my garden adventures!

Have a great weekend!

Homemade Compost Tumbler

I have wanted a compost tumbler for a while, but I refuse to pay a lot of money for one. I found directions for a homemade tumbler on the internet and asked my son, DJ, to make one. He was more than happy to play with his dad's tools! If you would like to learn how to make a compost tumbler, you can watch the video I made of DJ making mine.



Supplies and tools used to make a compost tumbler
32 gallon trash can
Duct tape
Stainless steel mesh (window screen material)
Electric Drill or Hammer and nail
1 1/2 inch wide drill bit
Bungee Cord (optional)
