4. Shoe Rack Herb Garden
Herbs are very delicate and planting them during the summer can become a real problem with the soil conditions. Not only is the soil dry and retaining more heat, but due to the soil being loose it creates shallow root systems that can’t withstand the elements. We suggest creating a hanging herb garden and the easiest way to do it is by re-purposing an old cloth shoe rack. You can add soil to the different pockets, as well as fertilizer and keep your herbs growing in their own individual pouches. Even better, the garden is completely mobile, so you can bring it inside on days that are hotter than most.
