Gutter vertical garden for food

Living wall eavestrouph

Here’s an innovative solution from Suzanne Forsling to grow food in Alaska at her home. She couldn’t grow food well in her backyard because the ground was too cold since she lived fairly close to a glacier. The best sunny spot to grow the food was up the side of her house so she bought a couple eavestroughs and installed them on the side of her house. She plants them with edibles and she can eat fresh salads during the summer months straight from her own  vertical garden.
