Who needs grass?

So much for the new grass...I mentioned earlier that we killed the best part of the lawn putting in the raised vegetable beds. Below is a series of photos showing the progress. The final product isn't shown, unfortunately. I'll try to get shots up soon of how it looks now. The grass is actually growing up pretty well all over the place, despite all of the new dirt dumped over it, and the beds are full of healthy, happy tomatoes, squash, cucumbers, radishes, beans, carrots, peas, chard, etc... We'll be eating Kale in a couple of weeks!

No more grass for us...it was hard to break ground here after we spent so much time last year rebuilding the yard from scratch.

...and of course we needed to find a place for the soil we excavated, so we basically spread it out over as large an area as we could. Luckily, must of the side yard was already dead.

Here you can see three of the raised beds set in place, and the pile of bricks that we (Viola) would be laying over about four days.

Viola at work with the last section of brick (500 total).

Most of the brick completed and the greenhouses in progress.

Finished brick and two greenhouses in place.

Look for more soon!
