Wordless Wednesday on Thursday: Tower Gardens!

Good morning, Alexandra and Ron -- space saving and very eco-friendly approach to make sure we get our daily dose of greens.  

I've never seen anything like this....how beautiful!  The little snack you got sounds good too!

I too have never seen such a thing - how beautiful this tower of greens is and how healthy too!

Oh, I LOVE this! The idea, the look, and never heard of it before. It makes total sense. 

Pet Quincy for me. I am working on getting this stray (and very sweet kitty)

adopted after I take her into Vernonia to a pet rescue. She finally let me pet her and she is absolutley wonderful. Takoda chased after her when I headed out for our walk, but she was too quick for him. I sure wish that I could keep her, but that won't work. She loved all over me today, the first time in several weeks of her being here. This one photo I have of her is from inside my house, when she heard the dogs barking and she turned. 

She really is very beautiful! I thought it was a male, but I think it's a female...just my instincts telling me.

Alexandra-Now that is really cool that they grow their own greens. Talk about getting fresh greens and saving them money in the process, I have heard of vertical gardening but hadn't thought of restaurants doing it.

Great idea for roof gardens. Thanks for sharing your tower garden photograph.

I like it.  I actually grow lettuce in summer in planters on my office porch.  I would love to add a couple of these columns to grow more.

Hi Ron & Alexandra - That's a cool way to grow some tasty salad stuff (no kale!). As for Quincy, pardon my suspicion, but I'm betting that he wouldn't call that procedure "normal".

What a great an innovative way to grow the best of the organics and herbs in a very interesting and conservative way to save space while growing healthy vegetables too! Montecito Urban Farms is doing something great about the environment too! Thank you for sharing!

Those are fantastic and look so decorative too.  I will have to find those for violets.  

How clever!  These are truly pretty to look at and functional... all the great ideas come from California!!

have a great night

 Good morning Ron and Alexandria. What a clever idea! I was thinking of doing something similar to this with my strawberries. I just need to find out where I can get large PVC containers like this.

I do like my greens.  Now I wonder what I'll have for lunch today.  Way early to start thinking about lunch but I am.....

Good morning A & R. Have never seen anything like that before, but what a great idea. In your area a year round garden, that is great.

Alexandra, this makes it possible for gardening in small spaces and you don't even have to bend down to do it.

That is fantastic!! Thanks for sharing. Functional and artistic. What a great idea. I think I have location envy... What I would do for a home grown tomato in CT in January!

It's whimsical, attractive, and so functional. I've seen these a few times, but not that many in one space. Delightful find. 

Hope Quincy heals nicely from his routine surgery. I'm sure he will. Happy Friday. 

Hi Alexandra, That is really interesting and certainly looks to be something whose time has come for gardening. Looks incedible and would love to know more about this. Great photo.

Hi Alexandra,

How very eco-friendly! Lovely to look at and so functional..thanks for introducing us to a better way to grow our vegatables and herbs using less water and space!!

Ahhh, how efficient and even a little deco looking. I can almost taste those greens.
