Forgotten side yard, no more.




The south side of the yard has always been a bit tragic. I came up with a grand plan to change the tragedy into a little bit of beauty. It was a major undertaking. I enlisted the help from my good buddy Travis. It was a two part deal. We first had to remove the grass and build the boxes. I made Travis work in the dark and the rain but after 16 hours the area was preped. After a little recuperation (two weeks or so), Travis helped me build protection for my plants. Thats right protection. Last years I did not get even one tomato. Between the deer and squirrels there was no hope. This year is going to be different.

Okay so I was so sick the first time I looked at it I didn't have the umph to read but now I understand it is the outdoor wildlife that thought you were gardening for them. Well I hope they don't fight to gain entrance to the holy grounds.
