Yard Pictures


Here's a look at the garden area behind the garage. There are 3 main gardening beds that are about 3'x 22' long. These beds have been dug down 24" and are designed like raised gardening beds. If you never walk on them you'll never have to till them! There are 3' walking paths between them and they are enclosed with cedar timbers. There are also 2 - 20' strawberry rows and one 15' row of raspberries with plenty of room for expansion. We put down black plastic and mulch to keep the weeding between beds to a minimum.

Here's the finished garden area, Summer 2005, and the pole beans and squash we grew in the main beds.

This is the north side of the house, summer 2006, the hostas are much bigger and the perennial grasses are getting taller every year!

This picture is of the raspberries. We planted them summer 2006, so they should do well this year.
