Today’s main task was to clear my strawberry bed and the wild raspberry canes. Dig it over add some compost and replant all my strawberries after leveling it all out. Little did I know it would take 5 hours just to do this bed.
Over 50 strawberry plants finally planted and over 30 raspberry canes moved to a new area.
Now just to keep them watered while they settle into there new areas ready for a great picking in Summer.
