		<description><![CDATA[An article I wrote about straw bale gardening appears in the latest July/Aug 2012 Northern Gardener magazine. My friend Karen found a new way to container garden using straw bales as the growing medium. That&#8217;s right, no potting soil just bales of straw. Karen wasn&#8217;t thrilled with the messiness of the straw bale method so [...]]]></description>
