Garden tea
Had to take a little break and check out how the garden fared after the high winds from last night. It's still super windy!! Seems as if it's either raining or windy these days.
The chicken wire is to try to discourage the squirrels from digging in the garden box. I found a black walnut that was beginning to sprout in there. I'm sure they are looking for more buried treasures. Little pests.
Also check out the beginnings of another small garden. We still need to put up fencing...both the chicken wire kind and the tall kind. There are bunnies that live under the shed so we have to keep the from getting into the all-you-can-eat smorgasbord. The tall fencing is to keep the deer at bay.
Stop by Kimmies for the list of Tea Tuesday players.
oh yes, got a fence around mine as well to keep all the critters out... happy tea on tuesday!
ReplyDeleteWhat a hassle to have to fence everything! We have moles from time to time, but our next door neighbor is merciless in trapping and/or exterminating them, so it is only on very rare occasions that we have one venture into the neighborhood. But, yes we do get odd trees growing here and there from some busy squirrel ... And sunflowers too! I don't mind the sunflowers at all though!
ReplyDeleteStay safe through the wild weather! Happy Tuesday!
those rascally squirrels leave presents everywhere!
ReplyDeleteYour plants are looking great and are those rain barrels I spy? Such a good idea!
Happy T to ya Halle!

Squirrels keep me busy around here too only I am trying to keep them out of the bird feeders. Cheeky buggers.
