Happy New Year
to you all, well I did say I would be making some New Years resolutions and
become a lot more Eco friendly in my garden this year and the first is to leave
the Christmas tree out on bin day next week for it to be shredded for mulch. I
forget every year and it ends up going into the normal bin as it’s too big to
compost.
For Christmas I
got a Solar powered fountain for my fishpond!! I can’t wait to put that in when
it gets milder!
I’m going to buy
a water butt to store water in for the summer months, and I hate slugs and
snails as they chomped their way through my veggie patch last year, but slug
pellets aren’t very pet friendly so I have decided to buy some bantam hens to
scratch about the garden and eat all the bugs and grubs!! And of course they’ll
supply a constant good fertilizer for my veggie beds and yummy eggs every day!!
Meet the girls!!
