Wondering what to do

Tomorrow im going to, hopefully, earth up the early carrots to keep them safe from the frost, and go on a hunt for horse muck, or at the very least for some fertiliser bags!

I want to start with converting the hedge into a fruit and berry hedgerow, so will be planning how to do that, with mublerries, tayberries, loganberries, hazel, dog roses and plenty of others. It will be done only bit by bit, but should eventually be a low hedgerow about 5-6ft tall, packed with fruit, berries, nuts, and wild creatures.

Something else im now considering, which will be a long term idea, is growing a hazel tree in a large pot. Not too surprising, whats to consider? Well, it wouldnt be just any hazel, but a hazel that has been impregnated with spores of summer truffle. These seedlings are available for just under £20 and take around 4years to start bearing truffles, but what a crop to barter with! Ive asked the company that supplies them for more info and advice.

I need to finish the hen-house roofing and start on the pop-hole door and the broodboxes. I think i might get it into position down the garden before adding the boxes on!
