@Melody Mc. I really enjoyed reading your updates. It's a very busy time for you. I think I would like dealing with neighbor cows, much better...
I cut the 2x4 strengthener / frame supports for the raised bed that is undergoing repair and strengthening. I hope I remember to buy rebar posts...
Beautiful beds, ready for winter, Sjoerd. Interesting about the Cosmea air layering.
