Raised Beds

I feel like quite a lucky girl. I asked my hubby to help me make some raised beds and instead he has designed a totally custom, very cool looking L-shaped bed. I can't wait for it to be done! I've been plotting and planning what plants will get to go in the beds and which will be in containers. Since I've gone totally overboard there is a lot of planning involved!

This is what the area looked like when we first moved in:


In progress


I'm so excited! I really can't wait until they're totally done - they will be beautiful! The next step is some paneling between the posts, then the top pieces go on and I get to start filling them with compost and soil.

Here are some pics of our peach tree being pollinated by bees. They've been all over lately!
