#GrowYourOwn is about my journey on learning to grow a decent portion of my own food to encourage a more sustainable food network in the world. I deeply believe it is very important for everyone to grow their own!

Heavy Rain prep and improvise
With the heavy rain of tropical depression Andrea heading our way this afternoon and night I've been preparing my garden. One thing I wanted to do is tie the lower branches of my blackberry bush up. I wanted to do this to keep the very new berries from hitting the ground and being covered in mud! However I was out string so I had to improvise. So I took some short bamboo stakes I had from last years garden and created crutch like supports for each of the three branches. Hopefully this will be enough to keep the heavy rain from pushing these low branches into the ground!
