Filling the last (and best) portion of back yard with a paved trail to the water tanks. Side fence extended 600 mm with help from Bunnings. Two peach trees, two apricots; one lemon and one mandarin fill the side and two plum trees fill up the back by the water tanks. A raised vegetable garden alongside the shed fills what remains of what was once an eyesore! Bunnings supplied the major bits to make this happen.
Materials
Fence extension (upwards). Timber, sleepers, pavers, loam, plnebark, irrigation. Wife and grandsons.
Tools
Ryobi drills. Trimmers (2), wheelbarrow, drill bits, sharpener, hardware, small tools, pressure pump and bench for irrigation bits; seat for me and rug for grandsons.
Steps
Step 1
Prepare soil, layout planting area, prepare and install fence extension, feed grandma and grandsons, dig holes for trees, prepare and lay pavers, build raised garden, spread loam, plant trees, feed grandsons!
That’s a fantastic effort, @Jimfish! You’ve turned an unused patch into a really productive and inviting part of the yard. The paved trail to the water tanks ties everything together beautifully, and the mix of fruit trees and a raised veggie garden will give you years of fresh produce.
Well done and many thanks for sharing.
