Default Bed Building and other...

I'm going to try to post this in parts, lkike one paragraph with photo, then Edit to add the next paragraph and pic.

I've been working on digging out a bed for the Jerusalem artichokes, a place where they'll be coralled. There's a gravel filled area where a single wide trailer used to be decades ago. Some of the area has already been reclaimed but I've been prepping another 3' wide strip just for the artichokes. I will add a side board on the right and will start filling the bed with used potting soil from last year's big tomato buckets. It will probably need more than I have. The tree will be cut down. It's a fire blight magnet.



I've got three each of collards and kale planted down on the end with deer netting over them. The rest of the weedy area will be tilled for two okra beds and pole beans on a trellis. Various squashes grew there last year.



The gravel that was dug out was relocated to build up low areas in the driveway where water settles after a rain. Lots of little trips to keep each load light enough for me to be able to manually dump the cart.
