Building a Wigwam Cane Support for Runner Beans

You will need:

• 10 Bamboo canes (each 6ft high),
• String,
• Scissors.

Instructions:

1. Put four bamboo canes in a square shape with one cane in each corner of the square and push into the ground,
2. Tie the four canes together at the top of the canes,
3. Repeat points 1 and 2 but position the square next to the other canes,
4. Use the last two canes to form high support bars that rest ontop of the string that tied the other squares together. Secure the support bars with string to the square shaped canes,
5. The structure should stand on its own, make sure that the canes are pushed as far in the ground as possible so the structure doesn’t topple.
