Cold Frames in and plants growing

                          



                    We have plants after lots of hard work we have sprouted plants in our grow beds. In this house we use all we can from what we have, the chicken coop is built from tons of spare lumber and tin, our greenhouse is going to be built with old windows, and our new cold frames are old windows on an old fence post we took down.

            Over the last week, Daddy O and I got to work planting all the cold weather things. We laid windows over our herb boxes and built and planted a cold frame box with cabbage, spinach, kale, and chard. We also made pallet beds for lettuce and onions. It shocked the girls to see after one week we have shoots popping up all over.

                                                

                                                Herb boxes out of old shipping crates, lettuce and onion bed behind, water system rain barrel hooked to our sump pump for constant water to the beds and bigger garden.
                                                Cold frame ... we are still in talks over what to do with the rest of this area by the house, it has one tree and some funky bushes and 2 flower plants we love.
