My Edible Garden

I've been gardening for most of my life and have been a devoted fan of organic gardening the whole time. It just makes so much more sense to work in harmony with Mother Nature than to fight her. Besides which it is better for the planet and better for our bodies. Here you can see what I'm planting and harvesting, with gardening hints and resources thrown in for good measure.

More Patchwork Shed

So early this morning I got this far on the first layer of wood. This is just pallet boards and a few bits of scrap. 

I stapled on plastic feed sacks as a wind and water barrier and started on the next layer of wood. Why I thought angles were a good idea I don’t know...,,

It was hot in the direct sun. 

I think the bottom boards took 2 trips up the ladder (once to mark then to screw in place) while the upper ones sometimes took 4 to get the roof angle cut right. 

Almost there on this section but all the batteries were dead. I *could* have drug out the electric tools but I was too tired to bother. Instead I rounded up some crates and corralled the small scrap for kindling. I’m trying to get this side of the wall done and painted so I can hang the door and start on the other side.

Tonight I’m glad my grand daughter heard the rattlesnake before she got too close to it.
