Our second communal working day was met with intermingling rain and sunshine! Within the session we decided to lay down some extra mulch to make a more open pathway behind the bed on the left side of the garden, and in front of our neighbour's fence. We clipped back some of the overhanging blackberry too to aid in this.
We've already noticed a lot of spiders moving into the garden, and they seem to be enjoying the opportunity to spread their webs over this more open section of the garden!
Prunings and organic materials that we took from the garden were formed into another 'takkenril' or in English 'dry hedge', in which lengths of branches and green matter are interwoven between supportive sturdier wooden beams to make a hedge that can be a great safe haven for different species including insects and small animals, whilst also enabling us to keep our clippings onsite to compost over time to the benefit of the surrounding ecosystem.
Guillem prepared a super delicious lunch for after all the hard work in gratitude! - thanks to all who joined!
Here are some pics take by Guillem and Silvia >>>
