We are coming out of a fallow period. During our long wet winter we have been considering little more that the merits of an endless variety of insulation products and roofing materials. The good news is that we are ready to set a group of tradies to work on a new roof, which will be both pretty and very well insulated (thermal and acoustic), we will also be primed for a series of water tanks, have power ready for the shed etc.
And so our thoughts are now on the garden again. The heavy mulching we did in autumn really helped the soil and cut down on the spring weeding. Which means we are both already hanging out to get some new plants in the ground. My mind is focussed on getting some of the fruit trees planted up the back. M. wants to get some shade-cloth on the fence so she can get some reeds planted hard up against it at the front.
I have added a few links to local fruit-tree suppliers and will say something about these in the coming weeks.
