Yes, I have been to the redwood forests of CA, truly one of the lungs of the earth. I poked around and found some info on Redwoods that may be of interest: Today, over 95% of the original redwood forest area has been logged at least once. Much of th…

Tell Brad to be careful ... that's how I ended up in the business of building garden planters! I built them for myself and then so many people liked them ... there you go! I have to be honest and say since I do wood working I'd enjoy building my own…

Thanks for your comments Dianne. I love the Santa Rosa area ... some nice wineries! It can be a challenge finding redwood lumber in AZ but I'm determined to use it!

Good Morning Lynne, I just want to thank you so much for sharing your knowledge of this subject. So many people are uninformed about the headway made in protecting our forests, especially here in the US. I moved here from Santa Rosa, CA and although…

Ericka, I should have also mentioned that the qualities of redwood mean things made with it will last many, many years which adds to its sustainable nature. I provide a bit more information about it on my website: https://www.monarchgardenbox.com/Ho

You could sell plans for this coop! I can't quite tell how you get the eggs out. Is there a large door on the cyclone fence side? How are your chickies doing now? Anything you would change about the coop? Thanks!

I love it!

That's a great wya to do a ground based raised garden! Good job!

Thank you for a great question Ericka! For the most part redwood comes from second growth forests specifically cultivated for timber products. Because the trees need a moist and very specific environment to thrive the area of U.S. redwood forestry i…

I am curious on your boxes. What do you mean by "helping families keep good jobs in forests that are now maintained at a high level of sustainability." Where does the redwood come from? Thanks!

Wow! Thanks for that info Chris. Sounds like 2 hens would be plenty for us but then maybe they'd be lonely? I'm not sure if I can make the class tomorrow as I'm busy setting up for my Monarch Garden Box booth at the Thieve's Market in Cave Creek thi…

No, I don't seal the wood at all. Redwood is naturally resistant to rot, mold, mildew and fungus. It also weathers to a beautiful golden tone. My plants seem to be very happy living in their own little redwood forest and I'm happy to know we're help…

Do you seal the inside with anything? It is almost too pretty to get dirty! Ha ha ha ha ha ha.
December 2, 2009
Very helpful information! Thank you Kristin! You and I think alike since I have a business building veggie boxes and kept conservation of materials in mind when designing them too. I will have to build a lower profile enclosure because of CCRs in ou…

I've got some small, black little bugs on my butternut squash. I'm a Phx native and have never seen bugs like these, but I've also never grown the squash before, either. They seem to hide when I reach for a leaf - creepy! What are they and will they…
