Wet & Wild



A GAP in the rain! The EASY life.... mmmmmmmmm fair weather farming!

The 'farm' was once used to locate trucks and other heavy vehicles. To prevent bogging... bogging not blogging, large amounts of gravel and 'coal' were dumped to make a firm base. Soooo our gardens are built-up NOT dug down. Covered our plot with layers of newspaper to stop weed growth. Used water and dirt to damp down, keep paper in place.

Set up new 'vertical' gardens for potatoes. This will enable potatoes to grow in the column formed by the progressively added tyres.
