Square Foot Gardening

The last few weeks, have been really busy at my ''Job that pays the bills''. We have this huge fall garden festival every year that requires a lot of attention. I read a blog on square foot gardening the other day, I thought that is something I could get involved in as a community service. I work at a vegetable and ornamental flower research station for Mississippi State University so I have a good bit of experience with plants and a lot of resources (3 scientist work in the same offices with me). I just got a portable video camera and shot some video of the fest. There are some ideas on square foot gardening and handicap accessible planting boxes on the video. Now I have to make a plan on how to use this knowledge. I thought about starting at our school with a box for each class, have them take care of it (with supervision). They will also be able to take home the vegetables they grow. I have a lot of ideas going through my head right now. I am going to try to download my video on our blog so people can see. I never thought about using my experience in the garden and flower beds in this way so I have to thank Tom Callos for the inspiration.
