If you do not cut the sidewalls off, you could probably

sit
on them to tend the plants - that's a good feature.


Ohhh, I like that idea!

You could even - if you have enough soil to fill them -

pile
up several tires (as people do when planting potatoes) and
then be able to work on them at a comfortable height -

like
working on a table. But this would take considerable
shoveling and considerable soil to fill them.


The one thing I'm really good at is moving dirt around.
I would definitely do several levels of tires. There are
piles of dirt in my yard from other gardening projects, if I
can just bring myself to disturb the habitat of Rough Earth
Snakes I discovered last time I dug into the pile.
