It seems like it took forever for summer to get here.

I've been working, working, working on this place to get it put together for a garden.

First I had to clear a bit of land.
Next came the fill dirt and bulldozer.

Lots and Lots of Peat, Vermiculite, Pearlite, top soil, compost manure and other organic soil amendments, I started building my containers, making stringers and nettings.

Here are a few of the pictures taken the other day.

This one is a combination. Your looking through some of the stringers that go down to the containers holding the tomatoes.

I bought 8" x 14' boards and cut out steps for the boxes to sit on. (Edited to add: I cut the boards in half making them 8"x7'.) There are 728 beans planted in these boxes. :)
