The garden car

by Tricia

Wordless Wednesday

Ever wondered what to do about that old car that your husband insists that he’s going to fix?

Or perhaps your lovely neighbors have a used car lot on their front lawn? Take your cue from this picture and grow a garden in the car!

If it’s been sitting long enough they’ll be plenty of organic material on and in the car. Just add some soil and compost, get one of the packages of “wild garden” or “Country Garden” seeds, sprinkle and lightly water. Before you know it, flowers will grow where only rust was before and you’ll wonder why you didn’t try this earlier.

    I LOVE that beetle bug. What a great idea and I love how it is painted. I grew up in that era.

    That’s actually really cool! We live in a very alternative-type town, and I know most people here would absolutely LOVE this idea!

    Sort of a redneck/hippie idea, eh? Great picture.
