I installed the polytunnel in April/May 2013. It was definitely starting to show signs of it’s age. To be fair, the plastic covering is designed to be replaced every 5 years, so we have done well that I lasted 8 years. The raised beds had also started to rot away. These were the original ones that had come from Tommy Topsoil.

Recently we had been using the polytunnel to house the chickens. They had to be kept indoors due to the outbreak of bird flu in the UK.

The space left by the polytunnel is now being used as a vegetable patch!

No more polytunnel, just a new vegetable patch!
No more polytunnel, but a new vegetable patch! It is already planted with two types of potatoes!
