There’s nothing that says summer quite like biting into a juicy, homegrown strawberry! When I lived in Golden, I had a massive strawberry bed and my biggest problem was making sure to get to the fruit before the birds. I’ve since moved up into the foothills and live around 8300 feet. Gardening at this elevation has its own challenges for sure, one of them being a short growing season, so last summer we built a greenhouse. Growing in a greenhouse is awesome, but space is definitely at a premium. I wanted to grow strawberries again and decided that growing them in a container was the best space-efficient route to go.
