Winterizing Continued


We're reaching the end of another productive weekend, yet somehow still have so much to do. The chickens wind break has been finished. I think it looks good and natural, the straw will definitely get used and not end up in a landfill like plastic sheeting would. Here's the finished product (sans winter roof). What do you think? As an added bonus, this wall has encouraged some of the chickens to use the higher perches we made previously so that they can see out over it.






We finished pulling out the remnants of this years veggie garden and boy was there a lot in there. More varieties of vegetables than I could have guessed were in there. Huge portions run wild with various herbs. We uncovered grape vines, goose berries, and a fig tree all being choked out by trumpet vines, morning glories, and clematis. There are also half a dozen rose bushes if anyone is interested they're free to a good home.

Cleaned Up Garden


Newly found Goose Berries and Fig Tree






The pumpkin patch is also done. It just needs to be tilled when we do the veggie garden, but the berry patch needs to be covered in straw still and the the raspberries appropriately pruned.






That's all for now. Thanks for looking :D
