Busy Saturday in the Garden
Since we cut the grass and created 4 new garden beds, we've only managed to get mulch onto the largest bed next to the road. The other three beds were in various states of disrepair. I put black landscape fabric down over most of the one closest to the house, but the other two were bare dirt. On Saturday, we cleared up the weeds that had grown up in two of the beds. One of them is still bare dirt, but the other, we put a layer of rosin paper down as a weed block, and mulched over the paper. We are officially out of mulch. We've used a total of 3 cubic yards of store bought mulch, and 2 truckloads (maybe 3 cubic yards each) of wood chip mulch, for a total of around 7 to 9 cubic yards. That's a lot of mulch! Our camera is on the fritz, so we didn't get any photos of the cleanup. It wasn't that interesting, just weed pulling and digging in the dirt.
