I would be tempted to leave that out and gain a little more space for plants (addict talking).danger gardenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09227500551609537140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3725795560485860373.post-25420239307242115532015-07-23T20:05:20.421-07:002015-07-23T20:05:20.421-07:00How exciting!

That reminds me, I've been meaning to do a post about a few things in the vegetable garden. <br />Yes, seed catalogs. Now I have a protected spot to start them, there's nothing holding me back (until I run out of space).Evan Beanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06732413653862912387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3725795560485860373.post-36109881240037967112015-07-23T16:06:03.796-07:002015-07-23T16:06:03.796-07:00What a wonderful fall and winter awaits!

Going up is a reasonable way to make space. <br /><br />My best tip is for shade: use binder clips to attach dollar store disposable tablecloths to the frame where you need a little summer shade.

They worked fine with a bit of folding.Jean Campbellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09000315400392984647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3725795560485860373.post-34729553757600657202015-07-23T15:51:13.296-07:002015-07-23T15:51:13.296-07:00A greenhouse is something I dream of.
