Gardening in Stock Tanks

giardiniere · February 14, 2006

We were at Walt Disney World last May, during the Flower and Garden Festival. One of the displays at EPCOT, was the kitchen garden. They had stock tanks, that are generally used to water cattle and horses, but they had vegetables and flowers planted in them. These stock tanks are 2' wide by 4' long and are 2' deep. I've considered getting one and growing herbs or smaller veggies in it. Our HD has new ones for about $60, but I'm sure I could find a used one for much less. Here's a couple of pictures I snapped. As you can see, they have flowers, tomatoes, eggplant, and peppers planted in them.
