Picking Garden Wall

For the past year, we've been talking about taking a bunch of the rocks from around the property and using them to make a wall around a picking garden (similar to the flower bed we made- just bigger)

The reason for the picking garden?  Mike does all of the gardening/landscaping... but then I feel bad picking the flowers!  I wanted a garden that could be used just for flower bouquets- without the guilt :)

We selected a location on the side of the garage.

We had a LOT of rocks to work with!

Reverse side-looking towards the back of the house

 And the wall is complete...

Mike removed the bush that was at the front corner of the garage & replanted it along the front field fence.

Next steps:
-getting the excess rocks out of the center of the garden
-roto-tilling the ground (once it stops all of this snowing- ugh!)
-do some planting (we just started researching for deer-resistant flowering plants)
