They are stacked like that to give the height because we both have bad backs..just pull them from the back of the truck and scoot them around where you want them

We started our tater tower after you guys started talking about them..we are using cleanings from the coop on bottom then potting soil mixed with pine shavings

OK EVERYONE BELOW IS MONTY'S POST ON THE RAFFLE! PLEASE HELP OUT & DONATE SOMETHING.


If you have been sending Monty PM's he is without a computer, you can send it to me until he is back up & running!

Donatations for the P.O.O.P.S. Raffle.

Time keeps on ticking ticking ticking into the fuuu-tuuure!

Hey we are closing in on the big event. Time to think about some items you may want to donate for the raffle. It doesn't have to be a big item (see idea's below)
This is one of the ways we raise funds to help with costs of the event.

For those of you that are new we have a raffle where you buy tickets (can't remember the price but cheap). Each item has it's own little bag that you drop your ticket into (so you will only win something that you were interested in) & at a designated time we will draw the winning ticket. Since we are doing the raffle this way, things for kids and adults will be in the same raffle.
I want to say thanks to everyone who has contributed to the raffle so far. I have received word of several items for the raffle, but we still need lots and lots more stuff. Again, if you have something you want to part with , keep us in mind and use it for a donation item.
If you have something to donate, please PM(Sooner) me with the information.

If you have contacted me about a donation, and I don't have it on the list then please remind me. Thanks for everyone's willingness to help.

Here are some items being donated.

You have the magic touch!!! I almost messed mine up, I think I put too much on it to start with & thought they weren't going to grow so I started taking them apart & found them very small so I uncovered them & my chickens had a go at them so they were stunted. I planted the others before & look how big they are compared to the tire.

Another thing I did was put a couple of tires together & using them to compost in. Keeps the chickens out & I stir it with a pitch fork.
