Absoblogginlutely’s Square Foot Garden

I’ve used the flickrrss widget to add my flickr account photos to the side of the blog for a visual update of the garden. I did find that with wordpress 2.2 you don’t need to install the automatic widget plugin as it is already built in, but you do need to create the widgets directory underneath the plugins directory and load the flickr-widget.php file into this directory.

Last year at Thanksgiving, my parents purchased the All New Square Foot Gardening book by Mel Bartholomew and I took a look and decided that it would be a fun project to do. I have no gardening experience whatsoever apart from planting radishes in my parents allottment when I was about 7 or 8 so this really is a beginners blog. The comments are purely my own opinions and thoughts and in gardening terms may be completely inaccurate – if so, feel free to correct me (hopefully before it is too late.)
The design of this website will change as I play around with WordPress themes, widgets and stuff – this is my first WordPress based blog for my own use so this project is also going to be used for learning wordpress. The installation took about 5 minutes using the “one click” install from my hosting company which was very handy.
If you want to learn more about Square Foot Gardening then read Mel’s book, look at the official square foot gardening website or take a look at the blogroll that will be populated with other growers.
