Getting ready for the Secret Garden Tour







We spent the past few weekends getting ready for the Garden Tour on Saturday the 30th. They moved it back this year from mid May to June 30th. We thought that would give us plenty of time but we are still scrambling to get things done.












We did a brick and mortor edging around the mulberry tree to hold in the gravel we did last year. We took out that awful plastic edging.






We bought a new fountain for the vegetable garden area. Last weekend I dug up the beds and we brought a yard of compost in to cover the beds.






This weekend we got a 1/2 yard of pea gravel and redid the flower garden paths and the vegetable garden beds area.




Chris did a lot of weeding and planting and moving of stuff.









Of course we can't have an event if halloween isn't somehow present. Chris put some of the half concrete skulls in the gravel under the mulberry tree.
