Done with dirt

We finished moving dirt today! All of the beds are filled, the two massive mounds of soil are gone and grass seed is down. That makes 40 yards of dirt and 60-80 yards of mulch moved so far. Our backs and arms are ready to be done. Some pictures to show our progress since last October.


We burned some stumps and laid a lot of mulch to turn this field into a garden.






The fence has proven to be both dog and deer proof so far. Success.

Grass seed down. Its finally time to get to the fun part of gardening!!
