Outdoor Garden Sink

 This is my salvaged sink that I found outside of an old Tobacco barn owned by a family member. My husband's cousin had cleaned out his barn and left this sitting out. 
I had really been wanting an outdoor sink for washing my summer produce and I was thrilled to find this one.

 We have a large garden. In the past, I would wash produce in plastic buckets and then have to bring the vegetables into the house to wash again in the kitchen sink. That was such a mess! Now, all of the dirt stays outside. I'm really loving this.


 I had planned to store the sink under my deck and just bring out the sink as needed. But I was using it every day and I had to find a place to store it . I decided to cut back some of my bushes and I placed it beside the driveway. It is out of sight and still close to my kitchen.

I placed a drainage board underneath to help eliminate the mud puddles.
I'm really enjoying this. One man's trash is another man's Treasure!
