Badgardener<p>Revisiting a garden I built for some friends today, to start on the long-overdue water feature (behind me). The rest of the garden is settling in nicely - although much of the credit goes to the sunshine, which makes everything look better.</p><p>This was done from scratch, and every surface, object and stone was put in by me, apart from the fence and the largest beeches along the back (which have been slowly and carefully halved in height). Brief was 'Japanese-y', and after my first minimalist design of three silver birches, a carpet of moss and a running stream was rejected, it became obvious that I was allowed to culturally appropriate like mad. Apologies to any Japanese scrollers.</p><p>No before photos, but essentially, there was a collapsed shed, an old trampoline and - well, that was it. Even the dog wouldn't go in there. As transformations go, this is a good one.</p><p>The shed was the first structure up, a few years ago now, and the green roof is holding up well. The planting happened last summer, so this is really the first growth season and all seems ok. Electrician coming tomorrow to wire up all the underground conduits, so looking forward to some night-time shots.</p><p>It is what it is. Hopefully, the pics are high enough res for some zooming in. Personally, I like the bridge: salvaging the mahoosive piece of slate was EPIC.</p><p><a href="https://mountains.social/tags/Gardening" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Gardening</span></a> <br><a href="https://mountains.social/tags/BloomScrolling" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BloomScrolling</span></a> <br><a href="https://mountains.social/tags/Landscaping" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Landscaping</span></a> <br><a href="https://mountains.social/tags/Sheds" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Sheds</span></a> <br><a href="https://mountains.social/tags/DryStone" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DryStone</span></a> <br><a href="https://mountains.social/tags/JoinIn" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>JoinIn</span></a></p>

Badgardener<p>This week's contraption.</p><p>I do a LOT of soil sieving - in my work, large garden projects have soil removed/added by the lorry load, but with smaller ones, I'll bag it up and bring it home to be sieved, mixed with organic matter and then re-used elsewhere.</p><p>I'm also opening up the large 'compost' bins, which in reality are just aged cold piles of sticks, grass cuttings and chicken poo. </p><p>So it was a long overdue project to make a wheelbarrow frame for (much) quicker processing: the frame itself has a fixed one-inch mesh for initial sorting, and there's a removable half-inch mesh for finer grading afterwards.</p><p>Put about half a dumpy bag of waste soil through it yesterday, and will do about a cubic metre of compost today, mainly for throwing into the beds.</p><p>Should have done this AGES ago.</p><p><a href="https://mountains.social/tags/Gardening" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Gardening</span></a> <br><a href="https://mountains.social/tags/Compost" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Compost</span></a> <br><a href="https://mountains.social/tags/Chickens" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Chickens</span></a> <br><a href="https://mountains.social/tags/JoinIn" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>JoinIn</span></a></p>

Badgardener<p>Those of a sensitive nature, scroll on. Optimists may be rewarded for persevering.</p><p>Red, star of such posts as 'Would You Like To Talk To Me About Dinosaurs' and 'Chicken SWAT Team Available For Hire' - not to mention Tormentor Of The Cat - was attacked by a fox earlier this evening, in the back garden and in broad daylight.</p><p>If it hadn't been for Lily's yelling - a skill honed after every sodding time she's laid an egg, like it was a miracle of nature* - I wouldn't have gone running out to find the fox pinning Red to the ground, amongst a mountain of feathers. I assumed she was a goner, but ran back inside with her, to where the other chickens had fled and were tucking into some chicken-flavoured dog food, to find her still breathing.</p><p>Anyway, she's eaten her own bodyweight in sweetcorn, is about to get a bunch of useful drugs and they've all taken up residence in the kitchen. Apart from a bald arse she's essentially bloody but unbowed.</p><p>Whether the fox survived the ordeal is anybody's guess. Thoughts and prayers.</p><p>(*: It kind of is)</p><p>Red is on my left knee in the picture, but you knew that already.</p><p><a href="https://mountains.social/tags/chickens" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>chickens</span></a> <a href="https://mountains.social/tags/gardening" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>gardening</span></a> <a href="https://mountains.social/tags/NotAllHeroesWearCapes" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NotAllHeroesWearCapes</span></a> <br><a href="https://mountains.social/tags/JoinIn" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>JoinIn</span></a></p>

Badgardener<p>Picture from one year ago today.</p><p>Terrific clients, who have a garden sited in a small but steep-sided hanging valley. Every year, from around November till May, the ground was saturated, with standing water a lot of the time - so they wanted to talk about drainage solutions.</p><p>This was the most obvious - just cut a winding trench from top to bottom. Hey presto, a stream! The water flowing through it hasn't been ducted in - this was the amount of wet previously trying to make its way down the garden, which is now contained and visible. Within a couple of weeks, the whole garden was starting to dry out. We estimated the flow at 5-6,000 litres per HOUR at its peak.</p><p>Work *with* the water, not against it.</p><p>(The large pebbles weren't my choice: I worry that they're over-large and obtrusive, but it will be interesting to see how they settle into the landscape as plants grow in from the sides. It's always good to get periodic reminders that the job is for the clients, not oneself.)</p><p><a href="https://mountains.social/tags/Gardening" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Gardening</span></a> <a href="https://mountains.social/tags/Landscaping" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Landscaping</span></a> <a href="https://mountains.social/tags/Stream" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Stream</span></a> <a href="https://mountains.social/tags/JoinIn" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>JoinIn</span></a></p>
