New Recruit

Our new recruit 'Jake' has been helping us plant a hedgerow down in the field. This will act as a wind break when we move the existing growing area to clear space for the second polytunnel. Having said that the first polytunnel is mostly full of junk from the garage, we do have some salad and a few veg growing in it though.
Jake struggled with the spade work
but was good at securing the guards, age 8 months
We're trying to get compost and manure delivered up to the growing area both of which our soil badly requires. The compost is on its way, it travelled from Michaelstow near Camelford across our neighbours field only to get bogged down and stuck when it got into our field. We're hoping to get manure from our neighbour too.
Hold still Jake this won't hurt a bit.
Mum, I love compost!
