Happy Spring! Lets hope we get more sun now!

It was a silly mistake but I knew so little about wire, I’m glad I’m not the only one to make it. I hope to move up to PVC, maybe for fall row covers!

In fall I may even add some pvc tubing to go oven the wire that will sit right where I have the loop in my wire so I can turn the tunnels into chenilles- much easier to move the plastic up and down than having to take it on and off :)

Happy Spring to you my fellow NWer!
