 Preparing the Raised Beds for Winter

 
Today is such a gorgeous day in Southeast Texas. After not being outdoors much the past
several months, I decided today was the perfect day to spend some time outside working on
my raised beds and raking the yard. So, I got a two for one deal....raked yard and nice compost
material. Later, I plan on laying empty feed bags and boards over the leaves so they don't blow out. Then at some point, I will scoop compost from the chicken pen.
 
 
So, do you have any tips or advice to share? Please leave a comment. I love to learn.

  1. Great idea! I need to get out there and get my sad little beds ready too. One needs repaired because the end boards were busted off by overgrown sweet potatoes :/ It's a great time to work in the beds since all the weeds are dead or dying off too...less to weed out...lol!
