Outside the second story window of an apartment building on Hampshire Street in Cambridge...

The gutters have been repurposed....

Karen DATE:6/28/2009 07:00:00 PM Very cool! I'm also impressed with the veggies my neighbors manage to grow along their chainlink fences.

It was quite nice to meet you at the Slow Food event on Saturday. Your salads were most yummy!! ----- COMMENT: AUTHOR:

Julia DATE:6/28/2009 07:50:00 PM Reeni -- I agree! I was never that ingenious when I lived in an apartment.

Heather and Psychgrad -- I'm curious to see how they grow when the tomatoes get bigger.

Lori Lynn -- I'm impressed with the homespun version.

Karen -- really lovely meeting you as well. ----- COMMENT: AUTHOR:

Marc @ NoRecipes DATE:6/29/2009 08:08:00 PM Hahah that's really inspiring, though I'm sure my condo board would kill me if I were to do that on the exterior of my 7th floor apartment. ----- COMMENT: AUTHOR:
