Rockery Garden

Have been busy again in the garden - this time of year is great when there is some rain to balance the heat and unrelenting sun.

New Rockwork

The rocks were sourced onine from an ad where it was free to take them away. I didn't need a removalist, but it was handy to have a van.

Chicken Proofing the Garden

One of the challenges when you have a flock of free ranging chickens is that you are constantly caught between a nice looking garden and the requirements of protecting the plants from the scratch and peck of the chickens.

Believe me, in half an hour of diligent pecking and scratching the chickens can wreak quite a lot of damage - especially to new plants straight out of the seedling tray.
