I saw it on Daphne's page (She commented above.), and I was totally unprepared for the extra effort it would require to make it a reality, but I am really pleased with it. <br /><br />And Yay for fruit trees. What kind did you buy? I love that after awhile the fruit trees/plants just produce every year. :)Cristyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11885394458317264217noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8521743532397166870.post-81643092418395617592014-04-03T12:35:07.795-05:002014-04-03T12:35:07.795-05:00Well, now.

We just bought some fruit trees yesterday for planting this weekend. We're excited about it. We've been adding fruit a little bit every year. Its such a good investment, not to mention delicious. Good work on the project. I'd never considered the added challenges of making a bed under a tree like that. But, it looks like it will be worth the effort.BLD in MThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08497511995276601468noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8521743532397166870.post-91968953675384036532014-03-27T07:48:17.294-05:002014-03-27T07:48:17.294-05:00Thanks, Daphne.

I am pretty happy with it, and my son has already started saying, "I can't wait to eat strawberries from the garden."Cristyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11885394458317264217noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8521743532397166870.post-51609827179137668362014-03-26T21:47:12.146-05:002014-03-26T21:47:12.146-05:00Your strawberry bed looks really nice.

It is not fenced in though so I am sure if there are any strawberries I imagine Coco would get them. I think I had read about doing that somewhere. I don't think I watered mine enough too. Good luck with yours. Nancy Cozy Thyme Cottagehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03933769393226611441noreply@blogger.com
