This is a mock up of the growing pergola I hope to get built by next spring. The green islands are the beds.
Each pergola will be 12'x12'; each bed will be 10'x39" w/ 2' between the backs of them & 42" walkways. (This mock up shows the 4 beds per section at 16' long.)

My youngest laid out the first 3 sections (of 5) of the growing pergola I want here next. (The wind tears everything up here, including hoop houses.)
To make room for them I'm deconstructing the frames & hoops for 2 - 24'x12' hoophouse frames that I never put covers on.

I was prepping to start filling 5 gal containers to up pot the 4 olive trees+start planting all of the bulbs & made a horrifying discovery - I only have 14 empty containers left! I need somewhere in the neighborhood of 35.
I can order more, but it'll be close to Christmas before they get here. 😬
