soft fruit fence

this is well on the way now ,,as we are not allowed fences we thought that we would do an edible fence on wires ,,still got some fruit plants to go in ,but we will have to wait till the raspberry canes have stopped fruiting

but so far we have
11 tall raspberry canes
blueberry bush
pomegranate
red gooseberry
loganberry

i also sowed some peas
and in raynes bed she sowed some peas and french beans

opening day at the community growing area

yesterday was the official opening of the community growing area ,,this is what our plots are officially called ,,the project was funded mostly by marks and Spencer's ,,it was the grand opening yesterday ,,i didn't take any pictures of the opening ,,but what i did do was take a picture of the whole area ,,i will have to do these every so often so we can see how its all coming along ,,the day was a great success and all the plots there filled ,,unfortunately they will have to be shared ,,but its only a little area and if i was in that situation i would rather have half a plot that nothing

the soft fruit fence

to day we started the soft fruit fence ,,we have got some raspberry canes to plant that we got for the bargain price of £6 just hope it was worth it ,we also have some at home in pots that we need to plant but will wait till they have finished fruiting before we plant them ,so today we started putting in the posts and wires to train them on got a few more to put in yet ,but its a start

sowing seeds
