 Future herb garden

 Flowering currant got moved out of the main garden, took over the whole bed!

 Evergreen clematis

 Lola, the chicken garden helper..
I was diggin and she'd say a certain sound that meant she saw a worm, I'd stop digging,
she'd get the worm,
then make a different noise which I assume was thank you,
 I'd say you're welcome, and on it went..good garden partner.

 Then Flo, the orange hen came over, plopped herself right in the fresh and tidy spot I had just finished, and began kicking fresh dirt into my face!
Flo! You're outta here I said, pointing with my cultivator, she took the hint and moved off.
Flo is not a good helper, but she's an innovator and protective, so she has her great qualities too.
