This is a blog about growing vegetables for home use in the Pacific Northwest. We do raised-bed, intensive gardening using galvanized animal watering troughs as planter boxes. We collect and store rain water for our garden. Our blog records our learning process and experiences with this type of gardening.

You can see from the pictures below why we had to build a fence around our garden.
Bob, congratulations! Your garden looks great! How has the rainfall been? Are you getting enough rain to keep your tanks topped off? Is there anything different you would do with the construction of your troughs? I am in San Diego, CA and am planning to put 4 troughs in my vegetable garden over the next few weeks. My experience is with ebb and flow and raft-type hydroponic systems but I am very interested in this "hybrid" approach and will give it a try. Any coaching is very much appreciated. Thanks!
