My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

I'm also a fan!

18 years ago

I agree with Ribbit that you guys are inspirational! I am a total newbie to gardening. I actually picked up the book on SFG a couple of years ago and built a box, but didn't do anything with it until recently (I've been busy making babies :) My mother-in-law was staying with us this spring and planted a few things in that box and here and there around the yard. We had so much fun with it that I am hooked now! Luckily, I found this forum and have been learning a lot from this and some of your blogs. I've just been so impressed with how knowledgeable you all are and what you've been able to create in your own backyards! Ok, so this is nothing compared to what you guys have (EG, Granny... wow!) but it's a start. I'll try to post a couple of photos here.

The first photo is looking from west to east. I have planted two kinds of lettuce (4 squares), spinach (2 squares) bell peppers (3 squares), chili peppers (4 squares), and broccoli (3 squares).
