Potato time

These guys have been chitting on our table in the sun.

The vermi-compost was especially made last autumn with charcoal, loads of comfrey and ramial woodchip. The beds had their 10 way cover crop made into compost yesterday and today before planting each potato with a hand full of compost I will lightly broad fork beds and dust with ash.

Go potatoes!!

 

Preparation

Getting ready for spring. Plot one a mixed cover crop, plot two a moving compost heap and plot three a tarp to kill off grass. We will see how they all go.

 

Bus flat succession

The bus flat has been an amazing project.
See here to see the final mock ups of where the screening would be going.
Then here to see the first plantings of trees with annual screening plants.

Today it looks like this 4 years later.
