All Organic Raised Bed Garden plots are our specialty. We will custom design you a plot, or you can order one of our standard plot designs. Our plots are small, we like to call them the "Goes Anywhere Garden Plot". Our standard small plot is 4'x4', our large is 4'x 8'. When order a plot we deliver a complete garden including all organic soil and 3 seed packets or 2 live plants. You have a garden when we leave. Other services: creation of wildlife friendly yards. If you are interested in developing a mini wildlife sanctuary we can help with that, and if you like, we will even get it recognized as a "Certified Wildlife Habitat" to include a placard and registration in a national registry.

Rototilling questions, answered by experts

For minor unevenness, you don't necessarily need to remove grass before leveling. You can apply a topdressing mixture to fill in low areas and even out the surface. However, for more significant unevenness or deep depressions, it might be necessary to temporarily remove the grass to ensure proper leveling and soil compaction. After filling and leveling, you can replace the grass or consider reseeding the area.

Yes, rain can affect the results of a perc test because it will partially saturate the soil and slow down the rate of drainage. Ideally, you should do a perc test during the driest time of the year and try to schedule it after a stretch of days where no precipitation occurs. This will give you the best chance of passing.

Yes, you can rent a rototiller for around $60 per day and do the work yourself, but it’s not recommended. Tilling is more of an art than a science, as tilling too deep can be detrimental to your soil structure and the organic matter that is beneficial to plants and shrubs, and tilling too shallow won’t properly introduce fertilizer or break up the soil for rooting plants. Additionally, tillers are powerful machines with sharp blades to cut through small roots and soil, so they are inherently dangerous to use. It’s usually worth it to hire a professional rototiller.

Many ways to landscape a steep slope on a budget exist. Avoiding expensive retaining wall construction is the first step. Consider creating a rocky slope with boulders or large stones, or think about planting perennials that return every year with a single investment. Transplanting small trees from elsewhere on your property is also possible and can help to stabilize steep slopes without purchasing new ones. 

While some areas may allow for a slope of up to 20%, this is often the maximum slope for driveways, with a few exceptions of up to 25%. Other regions may have a maximum of 12%, 15%, or 18%, so check with your local building department to ensure you’re laying a driveway that is up to code for your location.
