1. Epcot Center - Land Pavillion Ride Video:

This Video features the Epcot Center Land Pavillion ride in Florida. I wanted to show this video because it shows pretty much everything that can be acheived using a Greenhouse.

All of these things can be achieved by Backyard Greenhouse Gardening.

The Video is 7 minutes long.

If you would like the "Cliff Notes" version of the topics and plants mentioned in the video you can visit our Land Pavillions Notes page.

2. Self Watering Containers and Earthboxes:

Whether you already garden in a greenhouse or you are just looking into it, we highly recommend self watering containers, or Earthboxes.

If you already have a greenhouse they are a great way to grow even more fruits or vegetables, they are portable so you can grow with them outside during the warm summer days, and when the temperatures begin to turn.... just move them into the greenhouse.

Grow vegetables on your patios, decks, or even your condo balcony.

Here are a couple of pictures of a couple that we have made. We have made and grown with a number of these containers.

There is no better time to become more self reliant and produce your own fruits and vegetables.

The best part is that they will come from your own back yard, not having to travel half way around the world to make it to your table.


3. Two of the most Beneficial Resources for Growing Fresh Vegetables all Year Long:

Both of these resources are great for anyone who wants to get the most from a vegetable garden yet doesn't want to devote too much time , or energy, to the process.

I believe that they go hand in hand.

Eliot Coleman's book for the Hoop House know how, and Jonathan White's, Food 4 Wealth system, for soil structure and a no nonsense hassle, and weed free, garden.

Full review of why these books go Hand in Hand for Greenhouse Gardening.

Links to full reviews of each can be found below.


Jonathan White's - Food 4 Wealth:


After the initial set-up, there is no weeding, digging, some of the vegetables even re-seed themselves. The video explains why and how.

This stuff should be taught in schools as well, in my opinion.

60 Minutes of Video, and 80 pages of Information

Eliot Coleman's - Four Season Harvest:
