For most of the US this cold blast will be the last and it will be time to start getting our hands dirty. I have a 12 acre farm that fully supports my family and leaves plenty left over for storage and the future. While I'm biased a bit, I think it's time to bring back victory gardens.
Get out there, dig in the dirt, and plant some seeds.
Feel free to ask advice here!
If you have a wall that gets sun half the day, you can set up a vertical garden with multiple rows of pots. If there is any yard space there, you can plant in raised beds in front of that. At my house, I have a huge back wall to the garage that faces afternoon sun. I put in posts and raised beds. I ran pipe at the top along with wires and twine so I could plant tomatoes and other climbing plants. I planted lower plants in the beds, such as bell peppers, onions, and a lot of herbs. Rosemary will survive the snow and keep getting bigger year after year.
Yes I have 5’ or so of fence that gets enough sun. I have found this setup but so expensive. Need to figure out how to make something similar. https://flowerstreeturbangardens.com/
