Things I Like - Odds & Ends

I have gardens on the brain this week – my tomatoes started to ripen at the beginning of the month and I’ve been collecting baskets-full ever since. I still dream of having a real garden, the kind in the ground as opposed to the kind in containers, but until we have some actual ground, containers on the deck will have to do.

It looks like Ian Cheney and Curt Ellis, the documentary filmmakers behind Wicked Delicate, have garden limitations as well. Container gardens come in all sizes. Theirs comes in the flatbed of a 1986 Dodge pickup parked on the street in Brooklyn New York. And since they are filmmakers, the garden's growth is being documented via a solar powered time lapse camera.
