Square Foot Gardening Project

Here are a few photos from a gardening project that I completed (with some help!) in 2010, after moving into a new apartment with a patch of weeds for a backyard. The garden boxes were built following the guidelines for Square Foot Gardening, an approach that requires a lot less space and watering than I had previously thought necessary for growing food. The fence was designed and built as we went along. All the tools used for this project were borrowed from the Oakland Tool Lending Library (for free!).

Here is what the space looked like at the beginning...

And end!
