Tractor Tires?

[chickenchalupa]

I found some free tractor tires in my area. Anybody have uses for them? Raised beds, etc?

I've heard of people using them for potatoes...

If you have goats they like to play on them, other than that and the potato idea I got nothing.

I've seen a thing where they cut them a certain way and turn them half inside out (one side) to make a giant urn. I don't know.... Might look cool, or might look redneck!

I got 2 tractor tires for backside of property. Filled them w/manure, then topsoil. Planted strawberries in them. Then my wife after strawberries died down planted gourds in them w/out my knowledge or permission.

Ground settled in them, so I have to add more. If I can find some mint, will start that in there. Easy to sit on while picking.

My dh got me a semi truck tire and rim.Was going to use the rim for a fire pit,but it was painted.I ended up filling them with soil by a swing/arbor,and put in some grape plants.The area floods so I needed a raised bed,and the plants get plenty of water from the soil.
