We still did not get much (or any) berries this year from the garden but the plants are flourishing. I am hopeful next year we will have a bountiful crop. The plants were starting to take over and I really wanted to trellis and train them to grow how/where I want them to grow. This weekend was perfect weather for the build.
I knew exactly what we should build for the blackberries as the trellis we build at the Kalinda house proved perfect. Chris quickly recreated that trellis and I strung up the wire and wrapped the branches up through the wire. With a bit of internet research I found a great design for the raspberries. Hopefully I can keep these berries in a nice row and keep the branches off the ground and fruit at a decent picking level.
In all it took Chris and I about five hours to complete. The grand total in lumber was around $60.00. Now with all this care and money these suckers better flower and product next year.
