Lawn question, maybe you can help.

6. in your shoes

w a property i just bought. i had to have a giant old tree taken down, and had them leave a big pile of chips. spread it on the lawn. not hard to get a load dumped for free, tho. most tree services are happy to oblige.
i will till it in, either in the fall, or maybe next spring. this is a good amendment to the sandy, crummy soil around here.

i will put some big planters out so it wont be so bleak. i am sure a few neighbors are appalled, but most will remember the neglect that the place endured for the last decade or so.
