Growing stuff. It’s my fav.

And there’s nothing more fun than growing it up trellises. 

The best part about using a trellis (other than making your garden look spectacular) is that you’ll free up a significant amount of space. 

Because I work so hard to produce fantastic soil here in Arizona, I want to save precious square footage in the garden. 

The best fruits & vegetables for growing on a trellis

  • Cantaloupe
  • Watermelon
  • Grapes
  • Cucumbers
  • Beans
  • Peas
  • Squash
  • Berries
  • Peppers
  • Tomatoes

15 Simply Gorgeous Trellis Ideas

I always love a minimalist or simple looks to my garden, and these are some of my absolute favorite ideas!

This barbed-wire trellis is awesome, even though it might cause some pain during harvest. Better stick with a non-edible for this one. (source)

I’ve seen a lot of these cattle panel trellises and I think they’d look best if bolted to the wall/fence. (source)

This is a really unique trellis made from copper pipe. Love it! (source)

What an awesome idea to create a magical place to rest underneath! (source)

A modern take on a trellis! (source)

Old doors can be found everywhere and are perfect for a trellis! (source)

 Fences, gate, and even headboards make great trellises. (source)

This is a super creative way to re-purpose old farm tools. (source)

This trellis definitely would take some work to construct, but it’s incredible! (source)

These would be great for beans or peas. I love the different designs! (source)

Sometimes a simple bamboo trellis is all you need. (source)

This is a great raised garden bed & trellis combo, and I love that it’s on wheels! (source)

This wire trellis is giving me all the feels! This has definitely been put on our project list! (source)

I love that this artist took old branches and made this trellis! (source)

 

 

Okay, okay, so maybe this wire silo is a tad on the big side. But c’mon, you gotta admit it’s epic!

    Those are lattice not trellis, lattice is vertical and trellis is horizontal, that’s what I know.

      I believe A trellis is typically a latticework to hold or support vines or plants. Lattice is crisscrossing and trellis straight and flat. According to definition online

    Hello Danelle,

    I enjoy your site and videos…one of the trellis’s you have on your video …Layering your raised beds…the one that you are filling a narrow bed with cardboard ..native soil…potting soil..azomite ..earthworm castings etc…there was a really neat trellis looked like it was for beans or cukes..you had two narrow beds with each side of trellis attached to beds…it was metal and had a neat little connection at the top…looks like you could walk under it..anyways I’ve been looking for one and cant find it and it wasnt in your list..thoughts where I might find one?

      Hi Ray-
      Is this the trellis you mean? https://www.weedemandreap.com/make-trellis-raised-garden-box-combo/
      If so, it’s made from cattle panels and there’s a link in the article as to where to purchase. Thank you -Bobbi (DaNelle’s Assistant)

    Hello there DaNelle,
    I’m so excited about your blog. I hope to learn about you and your little price of paradise. When I ran across you I was in search of info on purchasing a goat. The more I read, I felt akin to your life. I’m in the high desert about an hour outside of L. A. I believe our climates are similar.
    About 6 months ago my husband and I purchased a ranch home on just under an acre. We’ve been focused on redoing the inside, but come spring, have high hopes for the exterior. We are painters by trade but have a very strong opinion that we are able to do anything if we set our mind to it. The possibilities are endless.
    We have a 15 year old at home and a 6 year old granddaughter who lives 2 blocks away. I have 4 degenerating disks in my back and neck as well as fibromyalgia. As 50 is creeping up on me I can feel my body wanting to slow down but am determined to give it a run for its money. Lol.
    I have fond memories of growing carrots and zucchini with my father as a little girl. I know this desert soil can produce but knowledge wise I’m starting at ground zero.
    Interestingly enough along with my property came a two stall covered metal horse corral. On the down side next door lives a pack of hybrid timberland wolves with a less than secure fence. Last thing I want to do is bring in a baby goat and have the wolves get to it. I’m sure the wolves are not legal, but I want peace with my neighbors. Our codes limit us to 3 dogs, they have 5. On more than one occasion the have hopped the 6 ft fence like it wasn’t even there. They stand, stealthily, in dark back 40, as we call it, watching you with their heads lowered. Then as the moonlight hits their eyes you get a creepy precivilization feeling you are being stalked. Mind you I’m a 1/4 mile from the nearest shopping center, in great area zoned for horse ranches. Makes you feel further out of town than you actually are. I have a purebred standard poodle, Lulu,who has boundless energy. My thought was that a goat might be an awesome companion or at least an opportunity to get some entertainment. Lol
    We are a large dog family. My 26 year old daughter has 2 very large Great Danes, one of which is a rescue. The come to visit our home. My daughter has property as well and an interest in farming it.
    Any advise you would have will be very much appreciated. Here’s to making new friends on this journey we call life. Our family is what we choose to make it, limitless. Judy

HEY THERE!

I'm DaNelle. I'm a city girl who convinced her husband to buy goats. Because, goats. Growing my own food has been an amazing experience, and this is the place I share it all with you! READ MORE…
