This Needed Urgent Attention | 5 Acre Farm in Spain

We're back in the kitchen garden at our smallholding in Andalucia, Spain, working on major upgrades to make growing food sustainable in our hot Mediterranean climate. But things did not quite go to plan. A major water pressure problem threatened to completely derail the new automated irrigation installation, forcing some serious troubleshooting before the system could finally get up and running. In this week's video, I extend the tomato trellis to support the season's growth, install a new automated irrigation system, set up a compost bin, and give the entire vegetable garden a much-needed tidy-up. The goal was simple: create a more efficient kitchen garden that can thrive through the long, dry summers here in southern Spain. 💧 Huge thanks to LinkTap for sponsoring today's video.
