Working On Beds 4 to 6


After a couple of days of rain this afternoon I managed to get the crown longitudinal ties drilled and fixed to the hoops, the Oilers and worm towers installed and beds 5 and 6 have been given another layer of vermiculite. Kelly is going to help me get more compost and mulch/ compost added to bed 5 and 6 tomorrow night weather permitting. I shall also look at what can be harvested from bed 1 tomorrow and pick up more windfall apples and leaves from the paths around the bed. I love being able to get what tools I need out the the Keter store and putting them back after I have used them.

Worm Tower installed bed 4


Hole for worm tower in bed 5 soil is nice and moist under the dry surface 


Worm tower installed such that cap will be at ground level once the bed has been topped up

Large Terracotta olla pot installed to the left of the worm tower


Smaller Terracotta olla pot installed to the right of the worm tower


A layer of vermiculite added to both bed 5 and 6 which will be mixed in with the auger Power Planter once more compost and mulch compost is added tomorrow

Scaffolding Debris netting laid over the structure such that the ends are more equal, I will able tie them in place tomorrow for now clamps are holding them in place to the crown tie
