Ti Pi for Son


Our son has his own garden area in our backyard. We constructed a Ti Pi out of old tree branches. Folks in our neighborhood placed them near the curb to be hauled away, so we hauled them! We dug three holes about 2 feet deep, buried the largest end of the branch and then filled the holes, braced the branches against each other, and tied them with some jute twine. We plan to weave more twine along the top half of the ti pi. This is what it looks like so far.

Bean Teepee

We have also purchased some scarlet runner bean seeds and instead of constructing a boring old trellis, we are considering building a bean teepee.
