“If you build it, they will come!” Rain that is.
The rain gauge had just been installed (thanks, Mr Fuller) and the heavens opened … 164mls has been recorded, over two occasions! A bird was happy to have a fresh rain water drink from the Birdbath!
Also, it was a good time to replant one Wicking Bed with Carrots, Beetroot and Chives and to start preparing the other two, by digging-over and adding compost. A few left-over peas were discovered, and eaten, in the process!
The Term 3 Environment Team was busy settling into their new roles, keeping the Crunch & Sip on the move!
