Today’s feature is from Sunset with this nifty Small-Space Salad Box:

DIY Raised Salad Box Project By sunset.com

Having fresh greens at your fingertips is one of the best parts of the growing season. And with a raised planter right outside the kitchen door, you can have a continual supply of salad greens nearly year-round.

This 3½-foot-tall box, designed by Sunset senior Home writer Peter O. Whiteley, is an especially easy project, taking only a few hours to build.

If you don’t have time to manage a garden plot, consider this clever and low-maintenance solution to having a selection of fresh veggies at your finger tips. It’s also a great option for those new to gardening and want to start small (or for condo/apartment dwellers who just have a small balcony to work with).

The idea is to take a window box, attach some legs to it then use it as a raised planter to grow a small amount of herbs and vegetables. Not only will it provide you with fresh produce, but it looks great too!
