Another winter project completed....the completion of this "dual purpose" table will allow us to begin moving seedlings into the greenhouse. We wanted a portable table we could use in the greenhouse to hold seedling trays, but that could be used to wash veggies fresh out of the market garden. This table is covered with hardward cloth which will allow the water and mud to drain off any vegetables washed on its surface.....invaluable for washing root crops - carrots, radishes, etc. We'll evaluate this table over the next few months and may make a couple more if it works well for us. So far it's met our initial requirements: inexpensive and easy to make, light enough for one person to handle/move, small enough to be able to reach across the width but large enough to hold several trays/harvested crops, and strong enough to support whatever is placed on it. So far, so good!
