Getting Ready for Springtime

 Repost from February 10, 2021

We have been working on our home gardens, as weather permits.  I've worked on the raised garden beds on the west side of our home.  The area is sloped: house above, shrubs and mostly grass for 40 feet to the street below.  

To expand, I covered the grass with cardboard, placed the concrete bricks, filled the bed with home garbage, composed steer manure, bags of raised bed topsoil, straw, leaves, organic materials, etc.  Leaves cover the active composting area.  Plenty of good growing soil in a sunny west facing location.
