I really want to have a garden, but omg it just sucks here. Our pathetic back yard is pathetic. Not only is it tiny, but the ground is steeply sloped over more than half the area, and it gets almost no sun because of the height of the building, the huge tree and the big stupid falling-down fence. It’s just lame back there, and I don’t think the soil is very good. Buh. I like the look of windowfarms, but I’m unsure how it would work with our insane cats, I’m sure they’d be constantly messing with the whole set-up. Ugh!
Oh, here’s a video about window farms.
I love Florence and the Machine:

Believe it or not, I have 5 acres of ground and I have very little room for a garden either! Most of it is wooded and shady. Nearly all of it is sloped. Because we are sitting in front of a large, steep hill, there are only a few places that get enough sun all day for a garden. I did just plant a few heirloom tomato seeds that I’ve been carrying around with me since the last time I planted them four years ago. I have a little flower box on the south side of the house, just enough room for a few tomatoes. I also have a few big pots that I’m going to plant some herbs and cherry tomatoes in this year. We need to get a machine in here to level a few spots off. Maybe then I’ll have a big garden again.
