2012 garden layout. i was working part time this year and the year before and it was really rough on me. i was unable to plant a full garden, and unable to take care of some of what i did manage to get planted. i couldnt keep up with the weeding. it was just a bad year all around. i finally had to quit the job in june.


spring 2013 replacing the garden fence
taking it down, so many pieces. at least 8 different pieces, patched in each time i expanded.


left side out, pavers overturned to allow me to dig/pull the buried part up.


front edge of garden fence out. the fence has to be buried, and surrounded by pavers to keep the bunnies out.
