Microfarming in Plaza-Midwood
Meet Colleen and Dr. Jason Sperati- two of Plaza Midwood's newest organic gardeners . Jason is a pediatric dentist who's just as talented with a saw and hammer as he is with a drill. He used untreated yellow pine to build two burly raised garden beds measuring 5' by 10' for growing vegetables, and a 4' b y 4' bed nearby for herbs. They filled their beds with a premium soil and amendment blend created by Microfarm Organic Gardens, and also planted an assortment of our organically grown heirloom vegetable seedlings.
It won't be long before their fridge is stuffed with fresh green beans, tomatoes and okra, and their pumpkin plant is so big, it could play the lead role in Little Shop of Horrors 2. And the DIY skills at the Sperati residence don't end with garden beds either ; check out those custom made tomato cages and cucumber trellis. Nice work, guys!
