Urban Rain Barrel™

Like the composter, not necessarily urban! Great for all of us in the countryside as well. This is a good way to collect and use rainwater, and it's very easy to set up.

• Urban Rain Barrel™/URB, price including shipping $121.50

Red Mulch

I've been using red plastic mulch (like a weedcover cloth) on my tomato beds with great results, and don't want to plant without it. Gardens Alive calls it Turbo-Tomato Mulch, and sells a 4-foot x 100-foot piece for $29.75. Use the banner link just above to get $20 off any order of $40 or more.
