Found these beautiful large ceramic pots at the Mercado Campesina in town yesterday (C110 each, $4). The organic nursery (vivero) there has some starts and succulents too. They sell bags of compost and a carbon and rice hull (granos y casco de arroz) mixture. I bought both to add to the pots. Temporary home until we can build the garden space. Need to erect a barrier so horses don’t munch on our herbs. I found some old rebar to reuse. #reuse #compost #carbon #herb #herbgarden #zone1 #caterpillar #butterfly #bugs #moth #permaculture #slowlife #nicaragua
