Who would have thought a bale of straw could be turned in to a mini (or larger!) garden. Straw bale gardening opens possibilities for people with limited space, limited options, or limited ability to bend over.

We will cover sourcing, conditioning, and planting bales as well as ideas of where and how to place them and what to do with them at the end of the season.
