Our 6 acres - all about the dacha, the garden and the site.
Every summer resident knows that the efforts in the garden and the work on the site bring not only fatigue, but also simple human pleasure from the work done.
Many of us keep gardens and orchards not only because of a lack of vegetables or fruits. It's quite another matter. In the joy of what is done at the dacha with their own hands, changing our small 6 acres for the better and transforming them, and all planted and grown on the site is a wonderful addition to our table. With what joy we wait for spring to start our troubles in the garden, as well as improvement and seasonal repair of our summer cottage. With what trepidation we try to make a swing for the grandson or, for example, to build a bathhouse in our dacha with our own hands, knowing that it will thank us warmly and the steam after a hard day.
On our site, we try to give recommendations on planting and advice on growing and caring for various varieties of vegetables and fruits, as well as to answer those questions that are most often encountered in beginners or even experienced gardeners. On its pages we are talking about the breakdown of the fruit garden and the care of the trees in it. Here you can find practical advice on the arrangement of a flower garden and the breeding of flowers in it to decorate your dacha so that it is unique and does not look like any other.
These tips are obtained through many years of their own experience, and are given by recognized experts in the field of truck farming and gardening. We hope that they will be useful to you and help you in obtaining high yields.
