Berry Patch



The construction on the house will begin properly this week. The ground floor of the Artdogs building has been renovated so I can redirect my efforts to the house. The last big piece was finishing the floors. After that there was the kick molding and a few odds and ends, but on the whole, the facility can be used. I figure the first step will be the upstairs bathroom.

The garden is going gangbusters and there have been no further deer incursions since the fence and soap and records went up. We are still at least a month away from any garden yield. However, the berry patch is producing like a rabbit on Clomiphene. We were told the raspberries were delicious, and they truly are. We didn’t do anything to the patch with our other projects and all… They should have been pruned back and tied to stakes so we could get between the rows. Right now there’s a big thorny clump we can only circle the outside of. Still, there is more than enough for all our berry-related projects.
