Rivervalley Garden - moving a garden and why would you want to ?



We have just moved from an established garden (Rivervalley Garden)  to a brand new one with nothing in it.   Garden helpers came in pretty handy and human became supervisor !





The garden has grown everything we needed for three years so the next one needs to be set up real quick. 
We didn't want to leave our barrels full of well rotted compost or the other full barrel of comfrey "tea" so ended up decanting them into old milk bottle containers to move to the new place and moved the barrels over and poured them back in at the new place.  
Compost was also well rotted down and ready to use  - well no point in leaving it there was it ?  this has been bagged up and moved over too and is now layering the hay garden - still bemoaning fact that we had to leave at least a third that wasn't ready ! 

Start of one of  the new hay garden - layers of  animal manure, compost, and hay  and just several rhubarb plants have been put in.  My nettles are still in the bag we transported them in and are doing so well we might just leave them there for a while.
