School Challenge, we must be mad

we have finally given our last 4 chooks away, one of the suggestions for the area is for our school beds, something one of the plot holder's plan..this is the area as it stands now, needs lots of hard work but it will be worthwhile, already have some schools interested, the area will have raised beds on :)

Sorry to hear you have finished with chooks, hope not too sad a day.
What a super idea to use the area for school beds, sounds like it will be well used.

Right, the beds are now finished, filled with the, in the end, 10 tons of topsoil and we're finishing off the paths with weed control and wood chip, I'm sure you'll agree it's a vast improvement , roll on March ;D
