bean teepee

Blackberries cleared, teepee trellis is up, and beans are in. I dug up as many blackberry roots as I could find before putting down several layers of cardboard and then the sand. I assume I’ll be spending the rest of the growing season playing whack-a-mole with the blackberries.

    Super cute! For what it’s worth, my beans and the bean trellises at our town library are about where yours are. Also wishing you luck controlling your blackberries, we’ve got some kind of creeping bramble here that is aggressive.

      We’ve got blackberry and wineberry I’ve been trying to keep at bay since we bought our place 10 years ago. They’re definitely good at surviving.

      Good to hear about the library beans. When I finally planted my starts we got cooler weather. But the next 2 weeks look warm so hopefully they’ll shoot up.
