A Large Cart is a Girl's Best Friend.

I have a thing for carts.  Wheeled vehicles that you can push or pull along bring me such joy.  A few years ago, I acquired a two wheeled wire cart a la old lady grocery shopping that I love.  It is the best thing ever for hauling around loads of stuff at the farmers market.  And I have this amazing foldable-positional-becomes whatever you need Transformer of a cart that I use to haul my hundred-plus pounds of work gear in and out of the buildings that I visit.  I think I could simply not survive work-life without that particular beautiful item of mobility.

Today, I have finally gotten the Mac Daddy of Garden Carts:  Rubbermaid's Big Wheel Cart.

This thing is seriously huge.  I think I could haul four small children around in it...or one large adult body.  Not that I am planning to move people (or corpses), by any means, but it should work well to move a corresponding amount of "stuff" around the yard.

Yes, by "stuff" I mean the happy by-products of living creatures that eventually goes back to the Earth and supplements my veg-growing operations.  You would be amazed at how much some chickens and a whole bunch of rabbits can produce.  More than enough to fill this cart a dozen times over, I promise you.  All that doesn't include the mulch, dirt, and plant-related materials that I move around the corners of my farmlette.

I have plans for my old wheelbarrow, too:

Isn't that just cute?  You can find the best ideas at cottagehomegarden.com!

I may spray paint my old workhorse bright pink first, though.
