Hi Rita. A lovely house, and garden with great potential you have! (I especially liked the little brook).

> how manny raised beds are you intend to make

Five in all (if you include the perimeter one). The four veg growing beds will run north-south (or as near as) down the plot. They will be less 'raised' I think, than this first one (i.e. cheaper wood) :o)

I've so far managed to find a home for two of the walnut saplings, which leaves five (I think - I'll have to check) still needing adoption. Tree nuts are great to grow, but you do end up with the problem of where to plant them! :o)

Best Regards,
Tim :o)x
