New garden beds

While the kids were out on break the facilities folk and I were busy at work outside installing the new raised garden beds at several of our centers. Special thanks to John and Josh in Washington County (it was cold and raining when we built the beds in WA county) and Julio at Mulino for their help!!! We installed 5 beds in three days, in various sizes and shapes depending on the location, and then sheet mulched the beds to kill of the grass and build the soil. I am really proud- they look great!See below for pictures and more information of lasganga/sheet mulching... (Click on the pictures to see bigger versions)
