House of Flying Green Beans?

Although my main area of expertise in the garden has been limited to creating a compost (throw everything biodegradable in a hole and wait) and watering (carrying buckets of water, pouring them in a tin watering can, and making rain), I have proven to be fairly knowledgeable in building things. My latest contraption is a poor excuse for a lattice, but it should get the job done (pictures to come). I will put the finishing touches on it tomorrow, but the house should provide a decent growing area for the viney green beans that have previously been left to grow on dead tree branches stuck into the ground. We are also expanding the garden by 200 (it will be just over half of a football field long and half a football field wide), which means that my once 30 bucket workload is now turning into 60 and will take a little under two hours to complete. And I get to do it twice a day.
