Leaf Mulch, Soil, Future Mulch

At last, we have moved the remaining soil and sod from the Parking Lot Garden into Beds 29-30. It was a lot of work, but much better than Parks Canada just taking away that good material and dumping it somewhere. Now we have soil that we can use to mound potatoes next year along with sod that we can water, turn and slowly make into more soil and mulch for subsequent years. Left to right, leaf mulch from last year, soil for next year, sod starting to break down:

Here is the pile on the first day after we had moved about a third of it into Bed 29. You can see last year's leaves at the back in Bed 30:
