Just when you think your backyard is not coming together after much blood, sweat and tears, you find picture proof that you are making progress - and a ton of it at that! 2014 has been knighted the "year of the yard". We wanted to make our yard into a beautiful, productive, edible place to live. Statistics so far:
- 5 dead trees cut down
- In ground trampoline with 7 foot set up for sub teranian garden installed
- Cement path installed that circles a good portion of the yard
- Installed watering system
- Rock and stone pathways installed
- New grass planted
- Moved 600 pound + boulders from the neighbors yard into ours (Ok Jeremy and Miles did)
- Tons of produce started including:
- 10 + new trees planted (lemon, lime, blood orange, apples, peach, fig etc..)
- Peppers
- Cucumbers
- Raddishes
- Pumpkins
- Sunflowers
- Basil
- tomatoes
- sage
- mint
- thyme
- Amaranth
- and much more to come! (watch for Grow boxes, chicken coop, more animals etc...)
