Message: [QUOTE="Hey Adrien!, post: 3489190, member: 5787"] My backyard is a disaster, mostly due to the fact that my 1890s home was one the workshop for an engine repair guy back in the 50s. He would throw all his junk in the yard and each year old nails/nuts/bolts come up. On a warm January day, we cleared out a lot of the area and then last week I level the yard, put in new seed/pre-weed/fertilizer and then covered it with a layer of old leaf scraps. Ran out of seed, so got in a new order yesterday and plan on prepping another part of the backyard (removing rocks, metal, weeds) before the snow starts and then hoping to spend Tuesday leveling/seeding/etc. Might be a moot point, but fun to be outside. My wife is looking to start a raised garden this year, any tips would be greatly appreciated! Lots of southern light, but we are in a heavily wooded area, so our north side of the house is mossier.
