Woodland garden - manure gathered in!

This Saturday (weather permitting) will be an auspicious day .... we plant the first new plants in our woodland garden.

Trees have been pruned or removed.

Ground has been cleared of weeds, logs, sticks and piles of rubbish.

I've already listed the plants we've bought for the first section.

And we've done a planting scheme and roughed out the area for paths with logs.

And yesterday we brought in manure to use to enrich the soil when we dig our planting holes.


So, a family planting session is planned for Saturday. It is going to be brilliant!!! Or very wet!
