Re: My Garden Plan
Massy - you have saved the document for Word 2010 but maybe a lot of us won't be able to open it because we have older versions. Can you go back and save it as Word 97 - 2003 document from the drop down options then attach it again. You'll get lots more answers then.

Re: My Garden Plan
Wow, that looks like a lot of work. My only suggestion would be to have a composter close to the house for kitchen scraps. If the weather's rubbish you won't feel like running all the way to the far end of the garden.

Re: My Garden Plan
You need to make sure that the bees are able to fly out almost immediately without a very tall boundary, also that the hives aren't too close to the hens and that they are sheltered from the prevailing winds. We actually had a compost bin (pallets) in the hen run, which the hens loved rummaging in and aerating it at the same time.
