Potato Boxes

The pile of scrap wood continues to diminish bit by bit with each new box we put together.  Today, under the protection of the trees from the continuing rain, we put together four more 4x4 boxes, as well as two 2x2 flower boxes.  The 4x4's boxes have already been placed on top of the four original potato boxes to form a second vertical level.  We will add in more soil and mulch once the potato plants have grown a bit more.  All we need now is our second layer of tires for the 11 we have already planted. 

A bird house was also made today, an eastern bluebird variety.  But, whatever bird gets there first, thats what type of house it will end up being, right?  This one birdhouse will be offered at our seedling give-away this Sunday, and if we feel ambitious, maybe a few more will be there as well!

Stay tuned for more rain and wet clothes......
