Hi, Austin! I wondered where you had disappeared to. Congratulations for coming up with a neat idea that's a win-win for both you and new gardeners. Good luck with it.

I still owe you some plants and seeds. Right after we saw you last, my mother went into the hospital and we had a lot on our plate for 3 months. Then I sort of forgot. (I'm old...I forget easily...ask Cindee. Or anyone else who knows me, actually!)

Show us some pictures of your garden when you can!

I am very interested in having you install one of your raised bed gardens in my yard. Nevertheless, I assume you will need to give me a quote. Please contact me by my email address vsilvia@msn.com and we can discuss further.

Austin,

Although I don't need/want raised beds, the soil in our garden and courtyard could sure use some mushroom compost and general amendment. I don't have the equipment nor the strength to do heavy work.
Unfortunately I am stuck in NJ until August, then I have to return north again until October. Could you send me an e-mail so I can keep you in my 'useful' file?

Austin, I think that's a lovely ad and a wonderful idea. Best of luck and much business to you!

Thanks for your well wishes. We have done two gardens in the last week. A link of one is pictured below.

Have any of you exhibited at local garden shows before. Are there ever any displays advertising anything like this? I am thinking about setting a few up at a show in the fall, what would be a good one to do?

A few pictures. We did a garden a while back as a volunteer project for a family at church.. The garden is doing well...

We also did one last week for one of the members here.. He looks happy with it!!

Beautiful raised beds. We have them in our yard out of necessity (all sand and weeds..) you can see ours in my public gallery. I love your design though!! Good luck in your venture!!
