It may be madness as I can barely keep on top of the veg/fruit garden as it is, but we have decided to put some more beds on a bit Doug just dug out of the brambles. It gets good sun all day and is by a hose outlet, we hope to grow some things the chickens can eat as well as some for us...
After some nightmare weeding of bramble stumps and nettles all over the shop
I’m trying cardboard as a way to suppress the weeds with lots of horse poo on top (that grows it’s own weeks, but at least they are not nettles or brambles...)
I’m thinking of planting squash and courgette in this bed , potato in one of the other ones and then some comfrey and other things that the chickens will like in the final bed that isn’t started yet...
