Nice vid
Wow, these are great! I would have never known about them if not for your video. Thanks!
Great video excellent for the urban gardener:-)
I’m not sure about this. I think creating your own compost (even if small scale) would be better than purchasing a compost sock. Patty, you must have a lot of compost waste from your animals and garden to create a decent compost pile. Perhaps I am wrong? No disrespect or challange offered here. Just a question.
You are beautiful and a joy to watch and learn from. Enjoy your new harvest. I have never seen anything like this idea before, very interesting! Ps. GORGEOUS hair.

Gives ya lots of ideas! Great video, and I’m gonna be experimenting tomorrow!
Thanks Patti!
what can I type to address this video?
garden socks get 4:34 of visuals and pumpkins hanging on vines get zero visibility. …what is congruent or perhaps what is real/natural in these visuals? this video inspired more questions than answers for me.
Ok I’m gonna go fill my old jeans with compost and soil and make my own soil bags.
this is strange….. it going into winter across the US,
Got the same cat problem
…but they also rid the yard of mice so, its one or the other i guess. Like the sock idea, it saves a lot of watering and weeding! As usual, excellent video Patty! Looking forward to seeing what you maybe growing over the winter in the hoop houses! 
LOL I see it drew that cat right away..I guess he will be “making biscuits” on that every chance he gets! They love to scratch and knead on any kind of soft squishy fabric…good thing she covered it with mulch, haha
@crewlla, I just put in loads of free flat cardboard..if ur using wood boxes i also line the bottom edges with free saved plastic sacks i get from the grocery stores as I have noticed that is usually where the grass sneaks in from those cracks & spaces and root upwards..I am now using concrete blks as they are cheap, easy to stack and dont rot , plus u can use the holes to put pvc pipe for covers or wood posts for trellis, or just plant marigolds etc.
Exactly! calex, these things are too expensive to use that way…all they are is that fabric like they use for neck pillows stuffed with compost…guess a person could sew some up and stuff them with compost cheaper than buying them..but i think they would best be used to fix sloping areas that are causing u to lose your topsoil.
Great idea but I am guessing that Patti was GIVEN the Garden Soxx by the mfr to promote them….too expensive for my budget.
$250.00??? Did that include the wood frame raised bed?? Ouch…that just doesn’t make financial sense to me. I could buy a years worth load of vegi’s (organic) for that price. I like playing in the dirt so this system doesn’t appeal to me.
these things seem amazing for boarders and that really innovative, but it seems like a waist to pile them up like that..
Great idea!
I suppose it can be good for some people. I mean anything that get people into growing their own food is awsome in my book =)

Wow, Those garden socks are nice, but at almost $15 a two foot section, I think I will stick to hauling dirt. I can get a truck full of great soil for $21. Oh well, I need the exercise.
If its expensive then how come the Garden Girl likes it.
That’s very interesting and sooo easy! People may complain about the price, but for someone like me? If I wanted to start a garden I’d have to buy all the tools (shovels, hoes, rakes etc, weed killer, fertilizer, gloves, dirt, plants the list goes on and on) that would cost more than $250 alone. So to spend $300 Initially (with the socks and plants) vs. all that other stuff would be amazing.
you can put rocks down on the bottom of the box then sand then weed block then dirt and you will have the same thing. Both ways you will still get weeds however, not as bad as not having any thing.
How tough are these things? I ask because our farm has lots of “vermites” round about, both the domestic kind and the wild kind.
