Yard update

While Jake and I were able to make some headway in the backyard clean-up project, we decided to hire our wall-building neighbor to do the heavy-duty work. He finished the roto-tilling today! Check it out:





We're figuring out now what to do next. Roland has suggested we hire someone to hydro-seed the backyard, and then in select areas (like around the holly tree and up on one of the levels at the side of the house) we get crushed rock (rather than mulch). Any suggestions, readers?

  1. You could put down some weed barrier material and then small or medium mulch - looks nice. Rock tends to travel onto nearby lawn or garden and is a pain to get up, mow, or plant through. Although I suppose it depends on the area where you are using it. Good Luck! Rose
