G’day!! Quite a beautiful warm day out there today! A lot of it was spent running about moving ‘stuff’ for Jeff to get around the yard with the mower. I was also saving a lot of the clippings to use as mulch and in between doing other little tasks – like watering 🙂
We got ourselves down to the irrigation shop today to pick up three lengths of poly pipe to finally get those raspberries under cover!
Once the lawn was all trimmed back I banged in some steel droppers.
They make such a big beautiful frame!
There will be plenty of space for me under the netting this season!
We have resorted back to the original style of tent pegs and various lengths of timber to keep the netting down.
Happily the 10×10 metre net was absolutely perfect!
Even though the row on the right isn’t as fab looking as the left, there are still berries on the canes. I think they have done pretty well so far considering their move a couple of months back.
The chooks are another step closer to wider pastures! haha
While we had the trailer on, we stopped by the plant place and collected a load of topsoil/compost. I only got to finish filling this bed, but maybe tomorrow I will be able to plant something in it, then finish my L shaped bed!!
Well… thats me done for the day!
Cheers!
Your new beds look soooo good. I do believe you’ll get to retrieve the raspberry’s. The netting should deter all the birds. You and Jeff sure have worked miracles on your garden. What a terrific job!!! Love from Ga.
Hi Linda!! Thank-you so much!! Apart from the last fence side, most of the major work is done!! Now to sit back and watch the food roll in?? haha!
Are you keeping warm? Things must be cooling down considerably in your end of the world! How was your Thanksgiving?
