I happened to wander into a local garden center and started chatting with the owner, a charming lady about 75 years of vigour.

"My tomato seedlings grew miserably this year and would you deliver if I buy 40 tomato plants?" Sure.

The delivery came, and the deliveryman said there are some cultivars that haven't sold at all. "I could buy them all if we can agree on a discount", I said. Done.

So I suddenly had 120 tomato bushes to plant. And no money left, of course. Raided the "stuff-that-might-be-useful" pile.

Here is the result. An ex swing repurposed. Lots of sticks and planks. And some fence netting.

I love my "pile"!!!
