The arboreal aftermath left us with a monstrous mulch pile to deal with and so, I made it my mission to replenish every garden bed before the onset of winter.
The Tree Doctor advised us to cover the exposed roots of a couple of large trees or they would certainly suffer. We moved the existing edging to extend the mulched area and procured some huge cardboard boxes from a local electrical store. After placing the cardboard as a weed mat, I dumped a hefty layer of mulch
and am very pleased with the result.
Come and have a look at the refreshed garden.
We then decided to rejuvenate the old dog kennel (that none of our dogs have actually used) and move it to a more prominent position.
With a fresh coat of paint, new bright curtains and the addition of a door and gable finial, she is flanked by a pair of potted English Box.

Well done!! I am amazed at your stamina for getting those big jobs done. Love the little house. Are the chickens going to have any decorating done to their home? How are the veggies? X

Haha, I think the chickens are very happy since you washed the curtains 😂 The veggies are going well, we invested in a greenhouse for all year round growing, I’ll tell you all about that in a future post 😁
