Good work and many thanks for posting and sharing those photos Eric.
You keep that garden in remarkably good order - I am very impressed.
How many hours per week do you spend out there?

What have you growing in that polytunnel?

In the tunnel there are squash, tomatoes, peppers , chillies and yard long beans.
We spend as much time out there as we can. Varies according to the weather, inclination and pain!

I'm sure it helps keep you both fit and healthy Eric. Its a huge garden and I know only too well how big a challenge that is.
In my case its like the old Forth Bridge painting story... WELL ready for weeding again before all other areas are cleaned up and into presentable shape. I do all the outdoor "chores" around here.

It looks like you have a LOT of harvesting to do in that polytunnel! No doubt a nice place to be when its raining. I thoroughly enjoy my greenhouse, and you have a few!
