This is a long shot, but I made friends with my neighbor, who owned a house with a yard, and he was very much in favor of turning the (mostly dirt) lawn into a garden. We’ve acquired a lot of soil and cinderblocks on our local Everything is Free page, which we plan to use for a terraced little garden of native flowering plants. We got a bit delayed by life stuff and because I was waiting to see if someone would offer up a pile of pavers (as soon as I buy some I just know someone will) but we’ll get back to it soon. We’ve got a peach tree to plant and I’m researching to see if I can find a used solar panel somewhere to drive a small water feature.
