Started on my first Sepp Holzer style raised bed yesterday. Peeled sod up, got maybe half of the topsoil out and set aside before it was time to do the dishes and make dinner....lots of crushed looking rock- placed there a while ago? Natural? In any case, might be good to use it to fill in holes in the driveway rather than leaving it in the garden.

We need to get some chickens. I need them to utilize our leftovers and there is certainly enough pasture for them. Questions: who would feed them if we went to Quarterly or other week long events? Would they be OK for a week if the feeder and waterers were filled?
