Gwendygay's Frontyard Woodland garden

Created on Wednesday, 14 Nov 07

I’ve been doing sheet composting and cover cropping to get the soil in better shape.

I’m hoping to make it as much of a woodland garden as possible, despite the fact that it receives morning sun and we get very little rainfall.

It also faces eastsoutheast and is on a slight hill.
