Transform….so the new front garden is beginning to take form and shape that is different from before. The front of the house has changed many times in the last 11 years. But this is the most radical of changes. Bring a backyard garden idea to the front of the house.
Hi-Tech Tree Service was nice enough to unload about 7 yards of chips. I only need about 2 to 3 yards, but it’s free and I’ll use it in the back garden as well. They were also nice enough to give me Oak and Redwood chips when I told them what I wanted to use it for…the walk way. The Oak/Redwood will last longer and looks better.
Because there was so much of it in the street, I had more then one neighbor come by and ask what I was doing or had questions about the process. One was so inspired, that he’s taking out his lawn too! See…it really does work!
I did find myself apologizing for using the wood chips instead of a nice “solid” walkway. But I really do like the chips. How practical it will be in the winter is yet to be tested out. Again, this is supposed to be a backyard garden..in the front. Beside…I don’t get a ton of people coming to the front door, except the daily mail delivery.
