Walker Gardening

This year I'm going to be making things a bit easier in the yard and garden. I'm turning one end of the driveway into a makeshift patio and container garden.

One thing about the walker I've got is that the basket and seat on it allow me to carry a lot of things around as I work.

There's no budget for plants or flowers this year so I'm just making the most of the plants I've got by dropping them into a lot of old pots that I had on hand.

These 2 mums are from my Dad's birthday party last year, it's nice to see that they made it through the winter and are off to a good start this season.

Easy Chair Berry Picking

 Just because the berries are growing low to the ground doesn't mean that you have to pick them there. I clipped these branches from the black raspberry bush and took them to a table in the shade so I could sit back and relax while I picked the berries.

Gardener's helper

I love those walkers with a basket and a seat. Not only are they a great help getting around but you can carry everything with you and be able to sit down whenever and wherever you want to.
If your yard is uneven and makes it hard to push consider upgrading your wheels to a small all terrain type. We're experimenting with that now and I'll have results for you soon.
I'd put in more paths and walkways if I could afford it but I'm managing just fine for now.
Each year we add more containers and raised planter boxes to make things easier and more fun for everyone.
Don't give up on gardening! It makes a HUGE difference to your health and well being. I'm happiest when I can go, play in the dirt.
