I have spent the last couple of hours enjoying every bit of your website. You are most inspiring!

However, I’ve looked everywhere and can’t find anything about those Hay Bale Crate planters for zucchini, squash and cucumbers. I saw the pic, and this would be perfect for our garden. Bending and gathering the huge bounty of these plants is always back breaking work… not to mention my personal issue with being allergic to the leaves. Please, please….. teach me!
