Straw Bale Gardens - The Fastest Spreading New Gardening Method In The History of The World!

The STRAW BALE GARDENS® method of growing a vegetable garden is the foundation of this company. The method, developed by Joel Karsten in the 1990's and perfected over the years, has now gained a very exciting following of millions all around the world. Karsten's five best-selling books have been published in many languages, and are being used by gardeners on six of the seven continents, in over 70 countries to grow vegetables in bales. Karsten gives dozens of presentations every year at events and gatherings around the world, promoting the STRAW BALE GARDENS® technique as a great option for gardening when traditional soil gardening is impossible or undesirable. The method is perfect for the very young, first time gardener, and also for the well seasoned gardener, who may no longer be able to do the physical work involved in traditional gardening. Recent travels in countries with large numbers of people suffering from malnutrition has allowed us to introduce Straw Bale Gardening to some of the poorest people on earth. Teaching them how to make bales by hand, at no cost, from any available grass, straw, hay, sugar cane stalks, or other fine textured organic matter. These bales are conditioned and planted and begin producing harvestable vegetables within just 60 days. No tools, no land, no money, little water and little knowledge is required to grow this garden successfully. This new gardening method is helping to eleviate hunger for thousands already, and like most ideas that fill empty stomachs without any investment, it is spreading quickly. The STRAW BALE GARDENS® brand is now producing BaleBuster®, a conditioning agent used to prepare bales prior to planting. The BaleBuster and Karsten's four books are distributed through retail stores and via www.StrawBaleGardens.com directly.
