Hi all! I am so glad I found this forum. I have gardened for years, but with not much success. This year is so different. We planted a container garden, using vintage and antique buckets, tubs, watering cans, old coal buckets and anything else we can get our hands on.

Things are looking great and I have loads of tomatoes on the vine already!!

I will post pics later.
