Now the chickens are allowed back in the open we are taking over poly tunnel number 2. The chickens have left us plenty of manure amongst the straw litter, but too much to rotavate in so we are using the opportunity to try out the new two wheel tractor with the trailer attachment. It might not look much but it can shift nearly half a tonne at a time so it will be useful for carting stuff around the place.
We had a good team helping us load it all up and it will makebsome good compost.
The next job is to break up the panned earth and get the rotavator turning the ground over.
Finally, we will have to change the cover as the white plastic we have at the moment won’t let enough light through for growing veg.
