I'll have a yard of soil delivered later this week to finish off my raised bed renovations then get going on early season seeds.
The herbs all existed somewhere else and have now been consolidated, awaiting parsley and cilantro in the open spot in the first bed. At just under 100 square feet...
Thanks for the info, that looks like a real solution, but not in the budget for this year. I hope to install that when the fence fails and needs to be replaced, that way I can trench the whole run along with digging post holes.
I'm emptying, turning, and rebuilding raised beds today. The beds were here when we moved in and there isn't really an option to relocate them on our property.

Straight out from the ramp has almost always been the ticket in spring for me. In fall the lily pad edges toward Susan have been money with a burnt orange balanced pine squirrel leech 3 feet under and indicator.
I've had several 0-3 fish days they but also broken double digits a handful of...
