Filling the Raised Bed
Photo-A-Day 2.0 #02281

The raised bed arrived yesterday and I did try assembling part of it but it was cold and that thing is metal. so, today I finished assembling it and then when Andy got home I got andy to help me fill it up. I found some raised bed filling techniques online and They tend to layer the bed with different things like cardboard on the bottom (save sme a trip to the compost area) then wood (plenty of dropped branches were added to the container), yard waste (I had lots of leaves I could add. then we started adding the bags of soil that I had gotten from Lowes. I did not have enough so tomorrow I will get some more to complete the fill. I did get my black earth compost, though and I bought 2 extra bags. I’ll spread 2 in the raised bed and use the other one for other areas where we have plants.
