It is coming to that time of year again, shorter and colder days and not so much to do in the garden. Why not take the autumn/winter slowdown for organising storage around the garden and utility areas. To make life easier we have pulled together what we think might be useful.

Log Storage

The options for log storage have already been covered in a posting, see log storage where we have listed offerings from Rowlinson Garden Products, Forest Gardens and Huttons.  Rowlinsons and Forest Garden both offer free delivery on most items to Mainland UK addresses. There are a few exclusions for some remote areas. 

These items are delivered direct from the manufacturer to the door, lead time is normally 7-14 days.  For more local Devon and Cornwall customers we have log stores from the Gloucestershire based Huttons.  There is normally a 14-21 day lead time for these items.

Compost Bins

Most of us householders keep kitchen, and garden, waste tucked away in a secluded corner of the garden. However, that isn't always the most accessible place for accessing at 6.30am in the rain and dark.  With a more "attractive" compost bin it can be positioned nearer the back door where it is more convenient but doesn't spoil the appearance of the property.   Our main image iis the Beehive Composter from Rowlinson, they also supply an entry point composter, the Budget Composter 

Forest Garden tackle the compost opportunity in a different way. In addition toa stylish Beehive Compost Bin they have a Slot Down Compost Bin option.  This bin holds approx. 650 litres of compost, but the Extension Kit adds another 650 litres to the total capacity.
