The first garden I am sharing with you is something we made out of a whim with a window box we had. You can find it HERE. I had a lot bigger garden, but we have been working on our yard and had to tear it out. We transferred a few of the things and look how great they are growing, even Daisy wants some strawberries.

WHAT ARE THE BEST CONTAINERS FOR A SMALL SPACE CONTAINER GARDEN?
It can be really whatever you desire! I chose the window box that we already had and found a fun planter at JOANN. I have seen people even use fabric bags, the options are endless!
