I’ve decided to join the masses and have me a blog

January 26th, 2008 Fee

I’ve started a few other blogs elsewhere, but I’m hoping I can try and keep up with this one.

I’d like, at the least, to be able to keep up-to-date with what’s happening in our garden.

We took on an allotment 2 years ago, and have decided to give it up this year, as we want to turn our back garden into our veggie-haven instead.  It’s not a very big garden, but we should be able to produce enough for the two of us.  We’ll miss the sacks of spuds and all those onions, but hopefully we’ll be able to spend more time enjoying it, just outside our back door.

Sad, but we think it’ll be for the best.

The Plan

• Move the pond and fish to the more shady side of the garden (from the sunniest and best place for our veg in the garden) and make it a much bigger and raised pond, with a wall for sitting on;
• Create one LARGE raised bed on the sunny (left) side, just over half the garden, with  a path between that and the pond (which will dominate the other side);
• Build a deck running from the house tothe edge of the garden, where we have  lovely arch leading you onto thenew path.

So, there’s the plan, more to follow with where we are and what we’ve been doing, maybe even a picture or two
