Garden Box #1

Here are two photos taken around a month apart. The same garden box is in both the photos. The first photo was taken the day I planted the plants. Growing in the box is four tomato plants, spicy globe basil, and carrots. I ended up moving the marigolds from inside the box to around the sides. I had a sweet basil plant in it for a day or two, then something came one night and ate through the stems near the soil. The prime suspect is snails, who also seem to really enjoy my mint and sunflowers.

I built the garden box. It costed around $20 and took a little over an hour to build, including the time it took to prep the location and move dirt into it. I now have three of them, the one in the photo is the first one that I built.
