Today has been a lot of fun; we cleared up a pile of saplings from the front yard that had been cut down because they were shading the solar panels. My partner had a rare day off, so I made him cut up the whole pile of saplings with his handy chainsaw.
The saplings became my next Hugelkultur bed.
In the process of cleaning up the saplings I decided to use an old half tank as a Hugelkultur bed too.
Then my sister rang and offered me some good red soil from her holiday home (just up the road) so off we went to pick it up.

Tomorrow’s adventure is to get all that lovely soil into the stage two bed and mulch it over.
I really need to get some seeds and seedlings soon!
I am really enjoying this process.
