let me do the hard work! you can do the fun part!
when Izzie moved into her home, the backyard was a field of weeds and stones.
she wanted a garden. so she decided to build one! she turned the soil, sifted out the stones and planted grass seed. it was a so much work she hurt her back before she was finished.
so she contacted me to finish building her garden beds. in just two days of hard work, i pulled all the buttercup, dug up the bindweed roots, severely pruned the ivy covering the fence, emptied and moved the compost bin, picked out lots of buried garbage and built a meandering cottage-style border garden with the bricks and large rocks i found as i was weeding.
that weekend, she was able to plant the garden! i came back the next week to continue sifting the stones from the garden beds and deal with the piles of stones she had already sifted out. next, i am going to build some raised beds for growing veggies.
