Rain today! All day! The creek is up!
The yard is getting a good long soak.
Maybe some good digging conditions next weekend. :)
Hey, Janie, on my Dirt Doctor site I was reading a request from a person in this area for advice about how to put in a veggie garden in his yard that is full of trees. He has a spot where he has the light but the tree roots run through it. He doesn't want to damage the trees by cutting roots. The response that he seems to like best is the response to put in a no-till garden. Pile dirt and compost on top of the area he wants to garden and use that as the growing layer, don't try to dig down.
Is there any way advice like this would broaden your options for putting in a garden?
