We got this wood chest (most likely an old TV stand) high end with actual dovetailed details for €30. It is painted Grey and we then went on Marktplaats (like Craig’s list) and picked up some matching tiles so we could seal (protect) the top and have a nice work space for processing veggies. He did a wonderful job! I cut my first zucchini this morning.
We are doing the straw bale farming and to say that it has made people a bit nervous is like an understatement. I even have had the mortified look from one woman. 😂🤣 I just keep telling them I have an agricultural degree and was raised in a farm in the US and that mostly stops the negative energy. New ideas (straw bale farming is not new) are always a hard sell until people see the results.
Funny, funny or strange looks have never bothered me or stopped me from doing exactly what I want to do! Today I was busy making a tench compost and “felt” like I was being watched. I looked up and the older lady two gardens away was giving me the stare down. I am sure I am creating a great deal of conversation.😂🤣👩🌾
Someone is hard at work!!

What is that the hubby is working on in the first photo?
I’m envisioning lots of vegetables from your newly-acquired garden plot.

Thanks for explaining the project in the first photo. You keep on farming just the way you learned, despite the mortified looks.

I need some words – what’s that going on in the first photo? Tiles? Backsplash? Counter???
