Salad Box

At last Monday’s Victory Garden class, Angela W. brought in an example of a Salad Box – a simple, portable, box to grow your own greens for a salad. We also recently got an email from Ginger Pryor, the PA state MG Coordinator, highlighting a segment on the Martha Stewart show where her counterpart in the State of Maryland, Mr. John Traunfeld, appeared on the show in order to demonstrate how to build one and use one.

You can watch his segment by going to the Martha Stewart link here, and subsequently watching videos 5, 6, and 7 (of 8), a total of about 10 minutes, showing how to build, and plant a salad table.

John also created a University of Maryland Fact Sheet (pdf) on the subject that can be found here.
