We are Diane and Beau, owners of Small Scale Gardener. We’ve been learning about all the different ways you can grow your own fruits and vegetables at home.
We’ve experimented with both soil and soil-less growing and have had great success with both. Though our soil-less experience has yielded way better results than our traditional gardening has.
We’ve always lived big in a small space so exploring options that take up the smallest footprint has always been high on our list of priorities. Vertical gardens and hydroculture, hydroponics and aeroponics, are two areas that have intrigued us.
We scoured the internet for information and experimented with planters, raised beds and even a kidding pool to house our garden.
Then Beau’s friend introduced us to the Tower Garden and we fell in love! The Tower Garden is a vertical, aeroponic grow tower that lets you grow plants inside and/or outside, learn more in our article What is a Tower Garden and How does it work.
On this site we will explore different ways of growing plants using small footprints. This will include vertical gardening, aeroponics, aquaponics and hydroponics.
We hope you enjoy our site! Send us an email if you have any questions, beau@smallscalegardener.com
Happy Gardening!
