plantmanager said:Thanks, Greg. We do that too. That article had some great info so others can do it too. I love finding thrift shop items that will make interesting pots, and it sure saves money!

The last four words say it all! The price of new pots and other containers is budget-busting. I was even looking at free truck canopies on Craigslist as a possibility for raised beds, just turn them upside down, drill some drain holes and fill them with dirt. Haven't actually done it yet, but a couple of raised beds is on our list. It will have to get "executive approval" first (my wife).
