Outside view. The roof, unseen here, is that opaque rippled plastic. Farmer's self-portrait. All the buckets of peppers and eggplants. Hope to add more. Also starting squash plants (zukes, cukes, punkins, melons, winter squash) in the little pots. Thai Chili pepper, being grown for Wingnut Confections, for one of their vegan chocolate truffle varieties. Each bucket is filled with a mix of Sunshine Growers Mix, mushroom compost from Wild Things in Estacada, and a little garden soil from the Long House backyard, just to stretch the other ingredients. Close-up of the beautiful rich mushroom compost. Worms included at no extra charge!
