I used to always throw away vegetable crates without knowing how useful they could be 📦. These simple plastic boxes, which cost almost nothing, can have a second life ♻️ and be used in your garden 🌱.
My grandfather had been collecting them for a long time 👴, and when I saw what he had built with them, I was impressed 😲. The full story is in the article in the first comment 👇👇👇.
Like everyone else, I used to throw away vegetable crates.
One day, I visited my grandparents and saw that my grandfather had built a fence using those crates.
I had never imagined that such simple crates could be so useful.
And it’s also a way to reduce waste by recycling them.
So, what can you create from these crates?
First, cut them using a grinder or similar tools.
You’ll end up with a structure that protects strawberries from birds.
It’s a simple but quite effective solution.
Then, modify the main part by widening the holes using a step drill bit.
By using old branches or pieces of wood, you can make stakes.
Then, by simply inserting them into the holes, you’ll get a useful product that protects your fruit from unwanted visitors.
