More Early Summer Pictures

H2 came over and took plenty of good ones.

One of the two cedar SIPs that I'm growing potatoes in this year.  I dug a small trench and mounded the soil up over the vine as it grew.

Carl taking a breather in the partial shade.

The chickens like to eat the maple tree seedlings that spin/whirl everywhere this time of year.

Not what it seems: Carl likes to "eat" the spray as it comes out of the hose.

It never occurred to me to make my cedar planters self-irrigating. What the reservoirs made of / how are they installed?

Hi Dirt,

Check out the post I did last year on making cedar SIPs.

Thanks for the link! That's some impressive carpentry. Maybe one day I'll make one if I'm feeling brave (mmmm ... biscuits!).
