I love gardens! It's the one thing that I miss not having a place of my own. That is very kind of the street worker to come and till your garden. Are you going to grow vegetables or just plants and flowers, or both? It sounds like you have your work cut out for you but it will look great once you've finished everything.
Is the weather getting hot where you are at? It is hot and 95F here where I live. Please show us your garden as it progresses and stay cool out there!

aw Cinda .. what a pity that you do not have a garden
but you have a balcon. where you still have a nice spot outside?
because you can also make it so cozy
Cinda I have not been living in this house for so long. only 7 or 8 months
and am very happy that I can now make my own space outside
so I start by tiling everything
I had already delivered the fence. but I will give it another color later on
I do not know yet what the end result will be
because making a garden takes time. to grow plants and make it your own place
but I want to make a place for the birds. also
for they are so used to me that I put down food and water for them
I love a French garden. and will try to create it in the course of time
I will not plant vegetables. But maybe it's an idea ... thank you
and it is not now hot in the Netherlands. between 20 and 25 degrees
so it can be done. but that can be so different
because the weather can not be predicted
I love birds and hoop I can make for theme also a good place ..
I do not know how the garden it will look later
but I hope a little bit for these image

hello, here is a further overview of the course of my garden
I have total bad luck with the construction of the garden
the road worker got a broken foot. and would send another worker for my garden
but that did not always show up
I had enough of it, and I went to work myself
I started placing the fence
then I went to pick out the tiles and started laying the stones myself
it has not been done nicely, as it should
but I'm doing this for the first time ... whaaa
I was working on this result for 2 days
and was completely broken. everything on my body hurt
but I had to
I did not want a sandbox.. because my daughter and grandson came for a few days
and you know children sand and water... that always goes well with them...
but not in your house ... lol
then it became hot in the country, and could do nothing more
so I have to do a lot of work, as you can see
but today the coolness is a bit back in the country
and I can continue working tomorrow
I'm going to make a big plant border at the end of the garden,
and wants to put a lot of lavender in it, and bushes
later there will be more news if I am a little further ..
and you know, I'm actually quite glad that I did it myself
now I can really enjoy myself in my own made
yes, still a lot to do as you can see ..

dear friends
it was a beautiful day today.and I did not feel sick anymore,
there was a lovely fresh wind
and so I decided to continue working in my little garden
I made a table and bought 2 lavender plants.
Of course there are many more plants to come
but now my garden is a bit on hand. and I can continue with collecting fun things. to make it really cozy
I have also thought about the birds
who come to get something to eat from me every day
today I cooked rice for them
and I made a cute nameplate ( THE BIRD TABLE) of an iron foot. who ever was from my clock. and a stick that they can sit on
I made all this with the stuff I still had
the table is a cut-through pallet
I have done slats around it
and it stands on stacked tiles. it went a bit crooked ... lol
this was my garden news for today
I hope I can take pictures when the birds come to eat. for the next time
because every time they are there. and I come out then they leave

thank you so much Sis Cinda...
I wish you could come and visit us, then we could enjoy a delicious afternoon of coffee and tea and cake with our friendly talks.
and in the meantime the crock pot is on with a delicious dinner
ohmy god we would have fun all day
