This looks great! I've use raised beds in the past and they worked well! Unfortunately now at my little apartment there is not enough direct sunlight. One alternative I found to raised beds are Smartpots. They work well and "connect" to the soil. The only problem, is the earthworms can't get in.

If I lived in an an apartment I would use an option like that. You should try it. To bad your not in Michigan I could rent you a little plot.

Yup that would be great! Its definitely a bummer because I am in sunny southern California in a region that is identified as zone 10b. Just the landlord plated a big tree which shades out most of the yard. So the last couple years I have only been successful with herbs like rosemary, mint, and cilantro. And some larger plants like basil and chard. Everything else just doesn't get enough sunlight.

Shepherd hooks can be put almost anywhere, and tomato plants make excellent hanging plants. If you have steps, a porch, or walkway or any other creative place to put a pot, almost all things can be grown in pots. I have great results by using pots.
