What did you do in the garden today?

[Artichoke Lover]

A wheelbarrow with a tire? Mine has a metal wheel (it’s ancient). But so am I!

Yep! Picked it up at the county co op
It’s one of the ones that’s designed to be lightweight with 2 tires and a plastic basin. It’s about 3 years old and it’s held up well until now. I’m a fairly tiny human so it’s a lot easier to use than a normal one. I may post a pic tomorrow it’s dark now.

I saw some of those at Lowe’s. Kinda nice!

Oh, and I cleaned the poop out of the coop today too!

I need to redo mine. How did you fasten it together? Just plain screws or something else?

Mine started out exactly like that and after two years it was toast. Now it's cedar and treated lumber. Holding up much better, but it wasn't free....phew.

Im thinking of staining the next one and adding hdwc on the inside. Ours is rotted through right now. It’s also about two years old.

My weather forecast:

Snow expected, moderate to heavy at times, especially
Monday evening and early overnight. Total snow accumulations of
5 to 8 inches. Northeast winds could gust as high as 35 to 40
mph resulting in periods of very low visibility.

We have snain, snow + rain = snain lightly. Now it is dark and cold will freeze our pavers are for skating now .. Most my birds have not seen this. I hope it sticks around till morning at least.

I wish I had a wheelbarrow with a metal wheel. every year I have to fix tyre. I wonder if heat has to do with it.

what about an old fashion way: dig a hole, cover with nylon (above, to keep it warm) and compost.

☀ - this is my forecast! I hope to do some clearing old chicken coops and runs and chopping junk wood for stove.
