Topsy Turvy

Usually post here deal with things I've done, but today I'm posting about what Michele has done.

It's tomato planting season and Michele found out about this new planting system called Topsy Turvy. The systems allows you to grow tomatoes upside down and about some of the normal troubles of tomato gardening.

What I like about what she did was her creative use of an old Ikea clothes rack to hang the Topsy Turvys from. This allows us to move them around as needed rather than hanging from a building beam.

Also notice how Michele spray painted the other containers white to get rid of the 'yucky dark' color of the plastic containers.

I'll try to update you on the progress as they grow. If you are a gardener, check out Topsy Turvy. They even have their own Flickr Stream.
