Square Foot Garden Built

Today, Dan (our summer intern), my sons and I cut up the cedar logs for the raised bed gardens. We cut the ends so the logs would overlap, and sunk a single lag bolt in each corner to hold them together. We have enough cut and notched logs for a total of eight 3' x 3' beds. We then mixed up the peat moss and the bedding from the horse and calf pens, which is half manure, half hay, and filled the beds. We had frost this morning, so planting will have to wait until next week.
