Garden Clearing Continues

The patch by the Caravan is another project that we are doing and another very messy corner that needs sorting out.

Lee has been busy tidying and burning the rotten wood and we are trying to save everything from the garden to make a new square border here. I have quite a few Climbing Roses saved from the Vegetable plot ready in pots so this new border should look really nice when it's ready for planting. You might have to use your imagination.

The Vegetable Patch

We were putting this off as it is such a big job. The whole lot needs to be cleared as we are laying down grass for low maintenance ... but I need to save the plants first and dig out all those weeds.

The Dumping Ground

At the moment with all the fences and trellis falling down we are putting it all in the middle of the Vegetable patch as this is going to be cleared for our Archery range ... we are making a big mess! The paving slabs will be re-used for the patio area off the conservatory ... and I am trying to save all the plants.

I've also planted about 80 willow sticks around the fence line at the back to fill in all the gaps. The buds are just coming out so hopefully we will have a nice boundary overlooking the old Railway and the Llamas and Bison!

This is what it looked liked in the Summer and what it looks like now.

Lots of mess













I think that blue shed might need painting BLACK.
