While the plants were getting their start in the greenhouse, Parks and Rec was busy preparing the garden. I should probably say “building” the garden, being as we were totally starting from scratch.
The existing grass was removed using a sod cutter and was saved to put in between and around the beds after they were established. Screen topsoil was brought in by the dump truck full. Frames were built to hold the soil in semi-raised beds. More frames were built to hold the topsoil in place until the beds were formed. Eight 3’x25’ beds were built, grass reestablished, irrigation system installed, 6’ fenced built surrounding the garden plot, soil sent off for testing, plastic placed on the beds to curb weed growth and so much more.
