Landscaping Diary Episode 2: Cleaning Up Brush (March 4, 2023)
Happy landscaping! Today, I cleaned up some brush around my grape vines, started removing the former owner’s compost area (blocks only for now), and cleaned a bit of the asparagus patch.
My dad assisted by using a saw and sawzall to cut branches and used a skid loader to dispose of the old compost’s concrete blocks. Don’t use this equipment at home unless you’re properly trained.
Note that I throw all food scraps in my dad’s field. Composting is way too much work, and I would rather focus on other outdoor projects, like replacing that area with an extension of my garden.
