Galvanized Flower Garden
May 25th, 2016 in member junk
Salvaged galvanized Turkey Feeders, plywood and some rusty metal straps combine to create a two-tiered Flower Box. If you’re not feeding turkeys with these things what else are they good for? Well I guess you could feed some other farm bird but I don’t live on a farm.
The legs are cut from ½” plywood, painted and then secured to the sides of the Feeders with screws. Rusty metal straps are bent into shape and attached to function as brackets.
Don’t make fun of me because I have no clue what I’m doing when it comes to picking out flowers. I’m not even sure of the names of the flowers I just bought…I went for color. The reason the flowers are so little is because I planted them an hour before I shot the photos. Maybe I should have waited a couple of weeks for things to grow…too late.

Your annual flowers should do fine. They are hardy ones, and marigolds (yellow ones) have the added bonus of keeping dogs away. Smart move. Posted: 10:54 am on April 28th
Thanks for sharing! Kathy
P.S. Do you have a watering can??? :) Posted: 10:40 am on April 28th
I think it needs a large "All" Bucket turkey standing next to it. Posted: 9:18 am on April 28th
