Garden Space

Our landlord decided to cut down a bunch of trees in our backyard that were getting tangled in the power lines.  This was bittersweet because they shaded half our backyard in the afternoon, but it was good because it made a VERY sunny place off the back of the house.  I asked if we could dig up some of the grass and put in a bigger garden and our landlord gave us the okay, so we got to work.

Proposed spot for the garden

Layout idea.

Ryan build us another big grow box to go with the two we already had.

We decided to rip out a rotting stump so that we could put in another small grow box.

We also put in some edging to separate the grass from the garden area.

All four boxes set up and filled.

The next thing I'd like to do is put in a drip system to water everything.  But that is a project for another weekend. :)
