 With my MS and Fibromyalgia together, this is an easy way for me to enjoy small scale garden. I plant my 3 favorite herbs in the white rack, they do great, I'm constantly using them so they keep on growing.
I always wanted real chickens but these will have to do, I've had them for years and I repainted them all this year. I'll add a few more pots of flowers by the end of May.
Easy to water all in one place.
    the drawf wisteria just started blooming, it's less invasive than the kind you see in the wild. This will be my happy place weather permitting until winter.

So pretty Connie Sue and I love those chicken. That is why I do a container garden on my back deck it is so much easier for me too with Fibro and Arthritis. I cannot start planting quite yet but I am gathering seeds and herbs.
Big Hugs,

I love your picnic table garden. As we get older with our various aches and pains we find ways to keep gardening.

Your picnic table garden! Enjoy it! Your chickens are very cute! I can't have real chickens, so my Husband and I have bird baths and feeders all over the place!

Your chickens and flower garden are perfect! I like your idea of keeping them all on a picnic bench. I bet your yard is so serene. You do a great job.

Thanks for sharing your beautiful garden with us Connie Sue! I bet it's a wonderful spot to sit and have a glass of sweet tea!

Heather, yes! And lemonade, it's like Junes favorite!I stay outside every chance I get,especially now it's cool. when the summer heat sets in, I am so limited in time outside .I have to water my flowers around 8 pm from July Until September.
I eat outside this time of year and stay out til the sun goes down. The mosquitos will show up about June or July so it's long sleeves to wear outside to water.
