Very impressive!

A friend of mine has a straw bale garden which I helped him set
up in 2003 (when I could still bend over without pain). He
used wheat straw and the bales lasted two seasons. After his
last 2004 harvest, he turned it into a compost bin for the
winter and built a new garden in 2005.

Your yard is a fairly decent size. 740 m^2 translates into
almost 8000 ft^2 or about 60' x 133'. From where are you
filling these 5000 gallon water tanks?

You have a great deal of fencing as do your neighbors. Are
these to keep roos out? Do you have a rabbit problem?

Where in OZ are you?
