Garden Blogging III


Jennifer came over today and worked. She was a champ. She staked down the hollow blocks in the center bed with rebar, put on the 4" capstones, then filled it up with dirt. She deserved every bite of that peanut butter and jelly sandwich she had for lunch. Thanks Jen.



I leveled blocks most of the day. I think I may have messed up on one bed by leveling above the fabric rather than below. We'll know eventually.


After the beds are all full, I dig out a trench for the edging around the perimeter of the beds. I will have to do some leveling in places. Jameson's Hill needs to be dug up, at least most of it. After I stake down the edging, I'll fill in with decomposed granite and compact it. Then the garden will be ready.
