Gardening Project Week 6

Day 22 of work being done: 30 June 2017 With all the rain that came at the end of June there was very limited access to the project with heavy equipment. Sadly our landscapers went off and worked on another project elsewhere because they couldn't do a lot of earthworks here on our own property.

We've put in over 120 plants so far, although it might not look like it. And have around another 70 or 80 to get in the ground, hopefully this weekend. Depends on the weather. This time they're … [Read more...] about Gardening Project: Planting
