October Garden and House Update | Preparing for Winter, Renovation Progress, Layout Decisions

This update is a walk-through of the garden and house as we move further into Autumn. The old kitchen is shown, currently used as storage during The Old Bakery renovation. There are three kitchens on the property and I explain how they are being used while the work continues. I give a clear update in The Old Bakery: what has been completed since last month, what is scheduled for November, problems encountered, and some layout decisions in the new kitchen that I am looking for input on. In the garden, I show what has changed since September. The temporary greenhouse is taken down, blueberry bushes are moved into the main greenhouse, and the tomato beds are cleared. The leaves and trees are changing colour across the grounds. I show the compost area after having a local farmer remove the excess garden waste with a 14 ton trailer, and the area allocated for the first beehives that will be introduced soon. I discuss repair options for one rendered face of the house, deciding between lime render or repointing with lime mortar and using a DOFF system to strip the remaining material. I show where hydrangea beds will be planted at the entrance to provide structure and colour. I outline further exterior work planned: changing downpipes, painting, and renovating the existing timber windows. I show the plans for the courtyard next to The Old Bakery to create a private dining space for summer. I also discuss the progress on the future garage building and when a full update is likely. I show the main crop potato bed failure due to blight and what will be done differently next time. The video ends with a recap of images and clips from the month as we move towards Halloween. Thanks for watching and if you have any questions or you are interested in seeing more of something, drop me a line below.
