Reduce Your Footprint presents this Vertical Garden installation at Barrett House. Steve Batley demonstrates the installation of a VGarden Slimrack. Steve summed it up nicely: “We’ve got food growing in the garden, we’ve got food growing along the fence, we’ve got food growing on the footpath… and now we’ve got food growing on the wall”.

Love this, great video. Have been searching for the VGarden SlimRack online and can't seem to find it – any leads?

Not sure if that's suitable for UK use. If it's mild steel, painted or plastic coated will look terrible after a couple of years. And winter winds will chill any roots, killing plants. Plastic would be better for UK use. Plastic and open backed, to allow light to heat the wall, even better.
loved this video. nicely explained. thank you.
hello there, very nice video, very simple easy vertical garden plus you are one of the rare people showing irrigation system which some people don't show…Thank you
Wow, very creative of you…… =)
I loved your video! A vertical garden.
Great idea and great info. Loved the drip system for small spaces.
need to know the name of the feed plant that sticks to outside walls of a home
$400 for that metal garden!! Farking hell. In that case, no thanks. I will recycle.
Fantastic video though!
thanks for sharing, it seemed a lot of investment tho. why dont we use recycle stuff to build Vertical Garden?
Does that structure of iron not heat up? Hence increasing media temperature that is not favorable for plants.
If you included a paper template with the hole location in each corner, one could just put the template against the wall and drill all 4 holes before doing anything else, which would make installation a lot easier. I would love these for my brick house!
great idea! vertical gardening
beautiful video. lucky you
thank you for all what you do
This is a superb how-to video.
This video is very helpful and informative. Question though: After your food grows and you pick it and eat it, you probably want to re-plant something in the empty space in the soil right? Do you move the mulch out of the way, plant and recover? or sweep up the mulch and replace it with new mulch? or what? I'm not sure what to do about the mulch.
I'd like to see the follow up. How did this turn out?
How often do you need to change the potting mix, fertilizer and compost? Or do you just feed it more compost fertilizer ever few weeks?
