Much like the Study in the house, the Barn tends to be a bit of a dumping ground for all sorts of stuff we want to keep, but don't quite know how or when... so it gets cluttered with empty feed bags, boxes, paper feed sacks, all sorts of stuff basically. I have to periodically have a huge sort out, so I decided Zero Waste Week would be as good a time as any...
Before
After
Pellet bags and Amazon card used to line the Hen houses and nest boxes.
5 Kg buckets waiting for holes so they can become huge plant pots
Big white bin now a rubbish bin but was the outside of our old water softener, which died recently
Poly bags which had held bales of Aubiose ( hen bedding) reused under wood pile and to cover up bales of straw.
5 L containers which had held bulk buys of washing up liquid etc is re used ( after cleaning) to transport water for the hens to drink
I tore up any damaged boxes as they will be great to add to the compost bins.
The Polytunnel has been tidied a bit - all the blighted tomato plants have gone and I have made a start on clearing out the buckets of old growing media,
but I have been sidetracked by this happening next to the polytunnel....
So the polytunnel and washing the plant pots has had to wait!
