Meet Ted,
Ted Lives at about 9,000 feet above sea level, in the Colorado Rockies.
Ted is passionate about being self sufficient and loves to grow his own food.
Unfortunately where he lives isn't very hospitable for your average gardener.
With some research and a little help from two young and ingenious brothers bent on curbing world hunger, Ted has found a way to grow just about anything he wants without having to worry about harsh weather or bad soil quality.
Watch the video below for part 1 of how to build one of these fantastic tools:
In the video Ted mentions the two brothers who came up with the concept of the “Global Bucket”. I do want to take a moment to single these guys out.
It is young adults like them who give me hope for the future.
For more information on them please visit GlobalBuckets.org
I have also included their original diagram that they based the Global Bucket on below, just in case you want to take a crack at building your own:

sometimes you can’t even grown in condo/apartment living – when you only have one wall of windows facing north that never get any direct sunlight any time of the year.

Hi Joe, I have a feeling we’re probably neighbors of the Summit. If that’s the case, would love to chat more with you about edu ideas at CMC. Thanks!
