Since I live in Florida, growing a garden in the soil is useless. We have to use boxes like you do because the soil is part sand. I've never done a garden like that since I am originally from Northern Illinois. Used to grow beautiful gardens right in the dark, black, nutrient rich soil. I love home grown vegetables. What are you planning on growing this year?
