    Weird Things I Do in the Garden That Actually Work

    Weird Things I Do in the Garden That Actually Work

    I learned how to garden on the go while raising four young children. I didn't even know enough to know all the "rules" I was breaking. I was just having fun and figuring things out as I went. And it turns out, I still like my way of doing things, even though most people find it weird. 
     
    Here are some "weird" things you can start trying out in your garden to make it more fun and maybe even work better than the "right way" to do things.
