My brush cutting DR Trimmer died last year (long horrible story about sabotage and losing 600 bucks because of it) and by the time I got a new one all the field grass between my garden beds had grown to 5 feet tall.

Last weekend I broke out the new trimmer and whacked all that grass down.

I salvaged some smaller sized pallets whi h I cut down and put along the I new wage of my garden fence and which I am going to put my potted veggie plants on this year.

I cleaned out my greenhouse, built a new tabletop inside it for up-potting and seed start work.

I also put up another metal shelf with 4 shelves since the newer tabletop was more efficient space wise.

This weekend I am going to reseal the greenhouse plastic with repair tape over the softball sized hail holes that smacked it 2 yrs ago....the previous tape became brittle in the sun and has all flaked and blown away in the wind.

Upcoming project is new greenhouse kit being put up and then moving old greenhouse, later this year, over thr top of well head and expansion tank. That should do an even better job of ensuring no freeze damage to the expansion tank (I do have it wrapped up in wall insulation)
