The last few mornings have had a chill about them which makes me think of Autumn, which is not far away. We have been sleeping under blankets and the days are getting shorter. Autumn is such a beautiful time of year. It means we need to stockpile wood, and that the sheep will be joining soon.
I have planted some seedlings this past week. Beans, peas, cauliflower and cabbage. I need to get some seeds in too so I can ensure a good crop of veggies for the next little while.
I have dug some compost into the empty beds before planting. I now have a dedicated compost area which has three sections at the moment but also has room to expand should I need it to. Things like this are slowly coming together which is wonderful.
We put a new veggie bed in the front yard which I have started preparing but I think a load of soil from the feedlot might be in order to finish it off.
I love this old iron bed head that it a perfect for for the width of my garden beds and acts as a bit of a trellis. It was nailed to the front porch as a decoration when we moved in but this is a more useful way for me to use it.

Hi! I'm just dropping in from DTE.
Are you clever, using the bedhead like that. Pretty and practical .. the best combination! :)
It's feeling very autumnal here too. My children are already asking to plant their broad beans, lol!
