Garden Photos from Mark in Kuna, Idaho

While we were in Kuna, Idaho to pick up my buddy Amber on our St. Jude or Bust road trip I snapped a few pictures of her husband Mark’s garden to share with everyone. Mark is from the South and over the past few years has created his vegetable garden all by himself using recycled wood for the garden beds and pvc pipe for his garden trellis.

Earlier this year he installed a drip hose around his garden and set it up on a timer system so the garden gets watered twice a day.

He also uses old Mountain Dew bottles to water a few potted plants on his back porch.

Mark has a little bit of everything growing in his garden, including a giant garden box filled with strawberries and tomatoes.

Being from the South he even has a few okra plants as well.

A summer garden would be complete without a few zucchini plants. 😉

And check out this mini bean trellis. Mark placed pvc pipe all around the garden bed and then planted his bean seeds along the edges of half of his garden box. He filled the garden box with a few other vegetables and then placed bird netting over the top to protect his crop.

Hey Mark, your garden looks great. Keep up the good work!
