Score 1 for me!

Last edited Thu May 8, 2014, 05:39 PM - Edit history (1)

I got the raspberries and blackberries planted in the bed I prepared, but there is no room for the strawberries.

But - I've had a large pile of wood chips sitting nearby for 2 years, and I finally cleared it mulching the berry beds and blueberry bushes.

I now have a large weed-free, cleared circle that is pre-mulched.

Guess where the strawberries are going!

or procrastination, or whatever it was that left the wood chips in that spot long enough to create a great strawberry bed.

I love when things work out so well.
