There has been some thirsty work done this week! Repairs made to various beds after the ravages of my feathered chicken friends. Currently I do not mind as they are clearing the soil of things and of course they poop while doing it! One bed completely forked and weeded another finished off. Most beds that I will need to plant in the next few weeks are ready. Just need to keep an eye out for the odd weed or two! Despite the frosts it is very noticeable that the grass is starting to grow. Thoughts of the first cut are in mind and if I get a string of dry days I may start. Continue to lift carrots and there still are more to do. It will soon be a race between digging them up before they start to grow again. Plenty of thinking going into what to plant where and when. The propagator is out and the ex mushroom trays are stacked and waiting for the seed potatoes. Chickens are being chickens and causing a little mayhem in the newly forked and neatly edge vegetable beds. Hey ho! Plenty of eggs though. Average this week is 5.4 repeating last weeks efforts.
