Building Continues on the Blueberry Beds and Raspberry Trellises

The great thing about working remotely is that in addition to being able to work from home, there isn’t any “set” hours to the day beyond those I define. Which makes it perfect for tackling all the Spring Yard work. Today we’re continuing the blueberry beds and raspberry trellises. After all the prep work yesterday I found myself in production mode: assemble, assemble, assemble. Its good to be outside and working with my hands.

Skipping over actually cutting the boards , Step 2 is priming the edges.

Step 3: Get the screws prepped to easily drive. Or get self tapping screws.

Step 4: align and assemble. by alternating the nails on each board we make sure an splitting that might occur doesn’t weaken the structure.

And we have the finished bed ready for staining.

Trellises are quite easy to make as well, set of 3 ready to go.

Staining is the last step, take some time and make them shine.

Sneak Peak at the finished product. 3 more to stain then simply need to dig them in, mix the soil and mulch.

A little more staining and getting the bases for the raspberry beds together and we’ll be ready for the new arrivals… maybe, we still need to get the beds created for the cherry and apple trees.
