Start of Garden reconstruction

Garden OverviewStarting off to turn our garden into a permaculture heaven, the plan is first to remove the square pond where nothing ever lived except for the koikarpers a previuos owner kept there and the waterplants that did not die in the underwater baskets. Luckily Edward came in to help a big bit. In a single day we did:

  • remove the walls from the pond. They were filled with that terrible white foam we call peep-foam. The pond foil was hard to get out, but when pulled to the side, the rest of the pond lost its water.
  • plants and conifers around the pond have been moved to the small garden in front  of the house. There was nothing but bricks.

The next thing is to fill the pond with the bricks and whatever we have. There will always be a hole, but, it may be okay for some animals and plants to actually live there.

The infamous pond

We want your  GFT! 

If anyone has any garden cuttings left, we are interested to compost them – with EM it’s actually fermenting – to fil the garden and make our garden more healthy and living.

    Ha die Barry en Suzanne,
    Werk aan de winkel dus, met jullie tuin! Leven de aardbeiplantjes nog? Heb je nog interesse in bloemenzaadjes, of heb je liever dat het al plantjes zijn, voor je ze in de grond zet. In mei kan eig. pas pootgoed gezet worden.
    Ik heb 3 zakjes zaadjes: zonnebloemen, korenbloemen en margrietjes.( ze zaaien zich bijzonder uit in je tuin, voor je t weet staat heel je tuin vol).dus ik denk, dat je er geen interesse voor hebt.Mail je even terug?
    Jenny
