I've tried mounds and tires, and this year I tried a long row and hilled it and honestly, I am thinking I like the tire method the best. You can also drive 4 fence stakes, wrap the bottom with wire (think compost bin) line side w/ newspaper or landscape fabric and put in your soil, compost and...

Going off the grid is discouraging..

Today my father and I went to Bass Pro Shops. Apparently he purchased one of those .22/410 combo guns and wanted some specialty ammo! For our rabbit hobby I use a .22 short sub sonics.. Barely louder than a bb gun actually. My dad has rabbits also, so he was looking for some of the same...
