A Load Of ManureThe BCSO vegetable garden is finished and the inmates who planted it are hoping their collective green thumbs will compensate for the less than ideal soil conditions. The ground's a bit rocky but everyone's believing the garden will produce a virtual cornucopia of cucumbers, squash, okra, green beans and big red tomatoes. Of course, the purpose of the garden is so inmates can benefit from fresh, home-grown vegetables while enjoying their stay at the luxurious Bradley County jail. Sheriff Tim Gobble and Capt. Gabe Thomas - two old-school farm hands - bring us up to speed on the garden's progress as of the last week of May 2008, and what we can expect come harvest time.
