Building the Hugelkultur Garden
Piles of Oak branches and wood. |
This site is full of useable organic material. The site also had a large Burr Oak to prune. Lots of material. |
Good top-soil. |
The long-bed taking shape. |
Just keep adding material. |
Will and his associate. |
Putting the top-soil back on the mound. |
Good soil and nice rotten logs. |
Leaf mulch pulled from the yard. |
Oak branches |
The long-bed on the right and the wells on the left are taking shape. |
The pruning of the oak provided a nice amount of material for the structure of the wells. |
Keep adding material. |
Adding in the last of the soil. |
Add wood-chips and manure then cover it with compost. |
This garden just needs a big infusion of quality organic compost. We will add about three cubic yards and plant the vegetables in that. |
We will have more to come.
