We now have electricity and water in the polytunnel. It's really nice to have those done. Without water, I couldn't bring any plants up. But it was a big job. Alex had to dig a ditch from the field to the garage and around three sides of the polytunnel. That's a long way.
First, the yellow drain pipe around the polytunnel for drainage. Then an electric wire from the garage to the tunnel and up into the field for the electric fence. Finally, a water hose from the field down to the tunnel and on to the garage.
I shlepped stones and clods of dirt to fill in when all was confirmed in working order. Finally, I topped it all off with the remaining soil that had been dug up.
Alex has straightened the door surround which got flexed when the plastic was made taught, causing a poor fitting of the doors. Then he continued with building the shelving and stand for the farmhouse sink. It's all coming together.
My rotating composting drum has arrived but it had a broken wheel which was replaced by the company within a couple of days. Now I just have to continue to level the soil so we can finish the floor.
