How to Grow Your Own Food

Free Water
Mar 3 2008
When I bought this property I threw out some old stuff from the garage, including a rain water barrel. I never thought I would be doing much in the garden, but now I regret that I threw it out. So today I borrowed a trailer and went and picked up a 1000 litres tank from a horse farm in the countryside.
It’s bigger than I imagined and we could barely lift it over the hedge. One tank of water amounts to about 40 DKK (8 USD) so it could turn out to be quite an amount saved during the season. It’s connected to the roof of the garage which is about 20 m2. There is height difference between north and south of the garden, so I hope no pump will be needed.
