After looking at the space and the gardening experience among the staff, we've decided to consult one of our in-house gardeners, Dennis Brown. He's one of our talented news videographers who also has a green-thumb. His advise is to create a raised bed garden.
They come in all shapes and sizes. We're going with a wood border, but you can create them using cinder blocks, bricks or even metal. After a bit of research, we were quickly discouraged from using railroad ties as the border. There's a lot of creosote on them that will leach off. If it's in the ground, it's in the vegetables, and ultimately in you.
Stay tuned for more on the making of the weather garden later this week.
