After we had such success growing our gourds on our thrown together make shift arbor last year my husband realized we needed to make a real arbor & a bigger arbor for more gourds to grow
These first pictures you see are from the gourd arbor /garden last year and yes it was basically thrown together.... but it worked & worked better than we thought , so that's when we decided we needed to make a better arbor! In all the pictures below is the making of our new Gourd Garden Arbor !!

This is the finished Gourd Arbor it measures 12 ft X 22 foot and has 4 rows of gourds growing and one row of sunflowers (which are planted on the outside of the arbor )
It's been about 3 weeks since I took All these pictures and we planted seeds and some gourd starts that I had already started a couple of weeks earlier.

The poles are set and he has three full rows of poles with the arch/arbor poles across the top , Then he put chicken wire & fencing and put it on to of the arbor and tacked it down , He also put chicken wire up between the poles so the gourds will be able to climb.
