After much planning and pulling the pieces together, we did it! The raised beds are built! Next week, they will be sown after the beds settle. This process was far more work than you'd think. First we rented a truck to pick up the free railroad ties. Then we got our neighbor to use his tractor to scrape away the grass. Then we ordered a butt-load of dirt, which is pretty pricy! Tim got a load of llama poop so big, he made the entire 2-hour drive home at 40mph on the highway. Rebecca was kind enough to lend us her rototiller. And yesteday it all came together. All that is left to do is to drive some rebar through the holes in the ties to keep them in place for ever! We're pretty psyched.
