Tilly, fantastic tour! You have so many trees and other plants tucked in here and there, and a great plan for the future. I am inspired by your ideas for garden rooms and outdoor living areas. I want to see it all in the Spring and Summer too. Love the three sisters.

Have you considered wood chips for keeping weeds down in your veggie garden paths? You can often get them for free from the roadside wood chipper trucks. They want a place to dump them. There must be some good sawdust coming out of that old stump too. I put a double layer of cardboard, and then an inch or so of wood chips, and it works pretty well for quite a while. I think the rubber can be kind of pricey, and maybe not smell so good. Here's a pic of my paths chipped early this Summer, and hardly a weed came up to bother me.
