Recently constructed the first of a series of raised beds in my courtyard using reclaimed cedar beams and the results are amazing so far. Truly rock star quality.
Here’s a closeup of the newly planted basil in the bed:
Then when I walked out with my morning cuppa, I was greeted with this:
Those are big paw prints from one end of the bed to the other. Right through my carrot and radish seeds. No, the canine responsible for this has not been harmed in any way thanks in so small part to the fact that I have the Serenity Prayer firmly implanted in my memory.
To hopefully put a stop to this behavior I’ll be cutting down a leftover picket fencing panel and affixing it to one end of the bed. This will give me something to use as a base for a clematis that I rooted last month.
