I have been experimenting with strawbale gardening for some years now. It is a fantastic way to grow tasty vegetables in straw. What's more you do not necessarily need soil so you can strawbale garden almost any where. Because there are very few sharp tools needed it is great for children. And due to the height of the strawbales it is ideal for people with mobility issues. I have made a instructional DVD on this fascinating method.
