Gardening Time...... working on the Greenhouse

When we moved  from our old house I brought the Greenhouse with us. My dad dismantled it for me and it has been set in (Garden one) since we moved in.

I'm glad I did bring it with me because as a lot of us do, I drove past the old house and they had flattened the garden, removing all the fruit trees, roses, fir trees and other fruits plants. As well as disposing of the shed and I'm pretty sure the Greenhouse would have gone the same way.

We do have a huge new Greenhouse (to me anyway) in the vegetable garden (Garden four) but I thought I could use the smaller one in some shape or form.

So Finley and I rolled up our sleeves and got to building the mecano set that set before us. Thankfully my dad is very neat and kept all the nuts, bolts etc in a small pot for me.

I had managed to find similar instructions online to help with the rebuilding of the Greenhouse but Finley decided his Dad didn't need these! 😊

So after a few screwing together, unscrewing and re-screwing again, we have at least managed to get the frame up and mini-greenhouse is sitting close to main greenhouse.
 Finley counting how many nuts and bolts still to be needed. After this exercise, I'm pretty sure I need a few extras to finish the build.



Finley checking some of the posts and frame work for me.


Finley in the main Greenhouse checking the equipment, to see if they need serviced before the winter months set in. 

So there we have it, the start of our vegetable gardening has begun, slowly but it has started and that's something.
