An Easy Way to Have Your Herbs and Veggies Right Outside Your Kitchen Door

Tic Tac ToeSquare Foot Gardening is like playing Tic Tac Toe in your garden!

I recently discovered this gardening method, and am hoping to use it in our next garden. The soil here is mostly sand, and since the water table is so high, any amended nutrients quickly leach out of the soil. I thought this raised-bed method would enable us to have more control over the nutrients available to the vegetables. I'll let you know how it goes, and furnish pictures when available.

The reason I'm telling you about this is because it is a fabulous way to create a "kitchen door" herb and vegetable garden. There's a lot less mess, and when your fresh herbs and veggies are closer to the kitchen, the odds go way up that they'll actually make it into your cooking!

Until we get our project going here, please enjoy this video showing the process and intended results.

I am Brenda Shoop and I am Aunt Bytes' very own resident nurse. I hold a bachelors in nursing from The University of South Alabama. I worked in health care for 20 years before "abandoning the ship." I have experience in emergency, trauma, pediatrics, internal medicine, cardiology, and holistic care. I am striving to learn as much as I can about how to treat the body so it can heal itself, in the most natural ways possible.

I am connected to The Great Universal Energy Source in the most wonderful and magical way. I see miracles every single day because I have learned how to change my perspective on life in general. We are all connected to the Same Source, and as we become enlightened, we change the course of events around us to reflect our deeper commitment, whether that commitment is to Love, Peace, Mercy, Greed, Lust, or Selfishness.

What I'm trying to say is that whatever drama is going on around you in your life right now is just a symptom of something you still need to deal with. If you change your patterns, the patterns of those around you will change as well. Much in the same way that if the Earth were to shift position, it would affect all the satellites around it, as well as the moon.

So, don't be afraid to shift positions now and again. Just try a new one on for size and see how it fits. You can always change your mind later, you know.
