Gordon - That "grid fence" is actually a vertical herb garden. My dh and I made it using re-purposed furniture pallets. I wrote an article on how to make this herb garden and it was approved a month or so ago. Not sure though when Dave is planning to run my article here on ATP, but others have also commented about it. It has served it's purpose well and continues to do so! Glad you like it!!! I love re-purposing items that would otherwise go to the landfill.
So you are definitely now planning to move .... To a house with ground property to create garden areas or to another city building with an accessible roof?
