Brent Coffee’s farm in Northern Arkansas is a testament togreen production techniques and the cost saving nature of what we used to call ‘southern ingenuity.’ Both he and his wife work full time and his job has him on the road through most of the summer. He wants the benefits of his home garden but can’t always guarantee he will be home when his crops need to be watered or fertilized. So, using a recycled chemical drum and some common parts, he built his own watering system that also applies Monty’s Liquid Fertilizer to his garden as it waters.
When we spoke Brent showed me how simple this is to build for under $50. These applications of Liquid Fertilizer are the only nutrients the garden receives apart from what is available naturally through the compost-based raised beds.
