Beginnings of a Hugelkultur

Finally! It's coming together.

I spent a good bit of time last week sawing and hauling some of the larger logs to build our first hugelkultur.

The hugelkultur base. That log on the right was a beast to move.

Our current raspberry plants will eventually end up here. I have some more building and cutting and hauling until we're ready.

On a semi-related note, we also planted our replacement trees this weekend. I forgot to take pictures.  :(  But, I'll post some updates of the orchard once everything starts to leaf out.
