Making Beds

After a winter of being extremely busy in life, and only a few visits to tackle weeds, we finally got to getting the levels done, and making some edges from the old wood and some plastic barriers that were buried there lol.
Back breaking work :-( 
Now frantically trying to get things done for Spring.

Plan is to have 5 beds with paths between. Not raised, but at least edged.

x1 fruit
Beds A B C for yearly rotation of crops.
x1 Permanent bed. So far thinking of Asparagus to start with.

Coldframe

I got hold of an old cover for a CNC cutting machine that was being thrown out.  I cut out the top, and used an old Perspex door to make another  lid in the top, and created a cold frame.
I also added some heavy duty handles from some other scrap to make it easy to move around.

This will come in very handy down the line I hope.

Starting At The End - Building Composters

As we had so much to clear, and didn't want to double handle all the waste, we first cleared the end of the plot, and used heavy duty Pallets to build 3 large composters. That way all green waste that we could would go straight into them out the way and start their process.

I lined them with membrane and we built drop in fronts. Also using some slabs to keep a decent path to them in any weather.
