The tomatoes have a roof!

It has been such a busy time both in the garden and at work. Despite it all, things at the garden are shaping up thanks to my hubby.

On Sunday (our wedding anniversary) we headed out to the garden to cover the hoop frame in plastic. We stopped at Amsterdam Garden Centre and picked up the cloche clips that they had ordered for us at West Coast Seeds. I would have loved to go out there myself but just didn't have the time. They are great that way, if you want to order something from WCS they will do it for you at no charge, you just have to pay in advance and wait about a week.

It was pretty rainy in the morning but by the afternoon it had abated somewhat so we measured up the plastic and headed out. The clips were pretty snug but they worked really well. Much better than trying to clip it with hand made ones and they won't rust.

Here is the finished product.

Tomorrow, the fence!
