    I have severe heart disease which makes it difficult to tolerate much activity. However, my husband suggested I use two flat cardboard boxes. I sit on one and put the other right behind me. I can scoot down rows by moving to the box behind me and moving the box I was sitting on behind my current position. This is how I planted my garden and this is how I weed it and harvest it. I also do all my gardening in the early morning when it is cool.
