Seattle Times' EcoConsumer columnist Tom Watson shows you how to use salvaged materials in the garden, from bricks and boards to old tools, toys and broken statues. These items can be used to make raised beds, pathways, trellises, garden art and much more - you'll save money and have a one-of-a-kind garden! Tom has many distinctive props, from his own garden, the RE Store and elsewhere, to illustrate creative reuse in your yard. Come and listen to Tom's ideas, and share your own ideas and experiences.
