Vertical Gardening Secrets

Whether you live on a large farm or a small lot, you’ll get much enjoyment out of having your own vertical vegetable garden. There’s really nothing like fresh-picked vegetables, right from the vine. Gathered early in the morning, juicy and full of nature’s best – mmmm! Makes any produce bought from a grocery store seem downright sub-standard!

Lisa Rodgers, from “The Garden Scoop”, has been addicted to vertical gardening for years. Having been raised on a farm, her grandmother encouraged gardening. She was skilled at picking tomatoes and beans as a toddler. “I was the champion bean picker. I have the trophy to prove it.” she laughs. Her grandmother excelled in every aspect of gardening and prided herself on her independent ability to grow just about anything.

That love for growing vegetables eventually blossomed again in Lisa’s life at the age of thirty-five, and she had to get back to gardening. “Ten years ago this longing to get my hands back in the soil, to get back to the earth overtook me. I started gardening again. I don’t live on a large farm anymore, so there isn’t the sprawling acreage to grow giant gardens. I still wanted to get a big yield, so the only alternative was to grow up instead of out.”

The concept of vertical gardening has really become popular over the last
few years. If you travel through any subdivision you know that backyards are
getting smaller and smaller. In fact, they’re about one-fifth the size they were
four decades ago. So, while our grandparents were more likely to have a nice
little backyard garden, we may not have as much space. Thankfully, there’s an
answer that any gardener anywhere can take advantage of!

Lisa shares the reason she didn’t feel comfortable growing a traditional
backyard garden, even though she lived on one acre. “There used to be a car
garage on my property before I moved in. There were a lot of chemicals just
dumped into the soil. I didn’t want to eat anything planted in that dirt, but I
could still plant my vegetables in containers and have them grow four, five or
six feet up and get a decent harvest.”

The benefits of vertical gardening could fill an encyclopedia!

Reap a Mega-Harvest even if you have no backyard!

Imagine harvesting bushels of tomatoes, cucumbers, limas, peas and beans (and much more) in one fraction of the space, even if your back yard is the size of a matchbox! Click here for  >>> Vertical Gardening Secrets <<<
