Repurposed Metal Wall Pocket Planter
From the blogger: "I don't consider myself to have much of a green thumb. However since we have been stuck at home we decided to plant a garden. I started some green onions in a peat moss container and needed to plant them in soil. I purchased a metal wall pocket last summer at a garage sale and got the idea to turn it into a containter for my green onion starts. Now it hangs above the raised bed garden. Hopefully I can keep the green onions alive to eat them in a month!"
