I have no idea where to start, what to put in it, where to put it...I'd really love some info :)<br /><br />Carol: Thanks for reading! I do need to do a lot of soil amending. I've already started with the garden next to my house...the dirt in that one would harden up like a brick after it rained. :( Now it's better, I think :D<br /><br />Bangchik: As far as all my space...I'd love to see it filled in, but I guess that would take the fun out of it if there was nothing left to plant lol.

What a long growing season you will have ...Hi Kyna,<br />What a long growing season you will have now! I wonder if those termites came with the lumber? Awful! Good luck with your gardening ... clay could sure use lots of help with compost. Leaf, manure, veggies. Everything grows better with a living healthy foundation. Looks like you have a large area to work with.

Quite a contrast from Edmonton to North Carolina.<br />It sounds like you need to add a ton of compost and manure to your garden.
