More raised beds

We have completed a further seven beds in the potager, bringing us up to a total of ten.
Poppy helping with mass production
The first three we cut in the garage and then put together in the potager, for these ones we cut them, drilled them and screwed the corner pieces on to the long sides by the garage (the weather was nice so we did it outside) and then just did the final screwing of the end pieces on to the sides up in the potager.

This shows the ten we have made, we are planning four more in the foreground of the picture (camera has made perspective go funny, the close up space is not as big as it looks) and two more on the left hand side opposite the ones on the right. So we will have 16 in total.
We are then thinking of a shed beyone the ones on the right and a small seating area on the left where Poppy is sitting.
We plan on putting wood chips down on the paths to keep the weeds down. This might not happen straight away though as we need to try to level them out a bit first - plus make some wood chips...
This is looking from the other end than the other photos, so the shed will be on the left before the beds and the seating area on the right. You can see the house down below the potager on the right.
