The hunt for straw was successful. After vacuuming out the back of our mini van.... it still isn't back to normal...
Strawberry/Rosemary bed is mulched. With a few cute little red berries resting on top of the straw.
A whole mini wheel barrel full still.
2 39 gallon bags full and still 1/2 of the straw left. I don't think I will need straw for a while. I see straw walk-ways next to the new bed.
Happy gardening all!
My goodness, how many bales did you buy?? One goes a long way!
ReplyDeleteRobin, I only bought 1! I'm sure the guy would have looked at me like I was a crazy person if I had asked for a 1/2 a bale... I think straw is a harder item to pawn off on people than produce. Anyone want any straw?
ReplyDeleteThanks for the offer:) I've enough for next year too! Your strawberry doesn't have runners? It's all evenly spaced out.
ReplyDeleteRG - no new runners this year yet, we started with 4 plants (I think) last summer and the rest that are there are runners. That "bed" started out as a hodge podge of plants, and we decided to mainly dedicate it to the kids and let them have a strawberry bed.
