The Real Junk Food Project - base

So we've finally got round to building The Real Junk Food Projects base. We hope to have chicken coops, beehives, compost bins, vegetable boxes and a green house all built for the new spring season. From there we can utilize this base to create Urban Guerrilla Gardens within the Leeds and West Yorkshire area. Follow our progress as we guide you through our designs, builds and finished articles, with no experience, but through a self-sustainable approach, recycling everything and educating ourselves through social and internet media.

How the garden started	The garden was over run with weeds	The unecesssary grass was dug up
Recycled resources	Reclaimed sand	Shrubs were cut away
'Scrap' wood	Foundations dug out	concrete posts provide stability
Reclaimed tiles became rubble	Starting to look the part	1 part mortar, 1 part sand
Just add water, mix by hand	4x 25kg bags covered the foundations	It took 1 hour to finish
Looking good for a beginner	I used a piece of wood to flatten	Used some old plastic to cover.
