They love them, and it’s their nutrients anyways. ;-)

Also sometimes I give them to the dogs.

Our little sparrows drove me crazy this spring. They kept taking dirt baths in my carrot patch! Non of my carrots seeds would germinate! I had to cover the area with netting!

We tried the tire tower thing too…but I didn’t add any more tires this year because we got them in late. I too am feeling a bit iffy about the rubber in the tires….I like your box idea!

We are just planning our winter crops here-our winter is Mediterranean so quite mild, though who knows these days. We have been talking potato towers all afternoon! My husband has just been in the garage to find some scrap wood. Now to decided on where to put them……..

Not from a pallet, I guess? Cause pallets are often treated with some pretty aggressive pesticides. Probably at least as bad as whatever might leach from those tires.

And thank you for the marvelous idea we are totally doing potatoes in the garden!
