Project Fruit Cage

Each winter we decide on one (but sometimes more!) project to start in the garden. With over 25 blackcurrant and redcurrant bushes, an equal number of gooseberries and several blueberries there is much each year for the birds to feast upon. Every year we say 'we must get this netted' and each year miss the boat. I don't mind them scoffing the redcurrants (there are plenty for all!) But last summer they ate  every blueberry and half the gooseberries....So us being us, we decided not just to net it, but completely reorganise it, change its position and make room for some raspberries too. But with Dotty the puppy and other family commitments, time hasn't been on our side and we are WAY behind. So far everything has been moved into its new position, (the priority was to move everything whilst it was dormant so nothing died, even though it would be harder to build around plants already in-situ) and the rubble from the old herb bed is almost gone. Chances are  we may just get it netted for this year, but if not  I can  try to pick the crop before the birds do!
