Beds going in!


 So, it's time to start putting the beds in. I want to have a go at growing some veggies this year, so I'm going to start with two 
raised beds, quite wide along two sides of the garden.


I bought some log roll edging and hammered it in to where I wanted it. After that I simply added some multi purpose compost, and voila! I know from last year that the general garden soil in the back garden is not great, so adding this type of compost will add the vital nutrients needed to grow vegetables and other goodies!
The next thing to go in was the fence on both sides. This was the finishing touch to make the garden start to feel much more private, secure and cosy! It made a huge difference actually, and the enclosed feeling the fence gave actually made it 
feel bigger! I quickly added some hanging baskets to the fence and planted some strawberries as the 
location is great for them to flourish in the sunshine!
