Mountain of mulch...

Monday I got a free dump truck load of arborist mulch. About time! My chicken run was down to mud and dirt! I had been emailing local arborists for months.  This is the second time I've gotten a load for free. Unfortunately, it came 2 days after I got garden soil delivered, and still hadn't cleared all of that out of the driveway. I think it was about 11 cubic yards of mulch.  I used most of it in the chicken run and bee yard, a few neighbors took some as well.

I had to jack up the coop onto blocks, so I could have the coop sit on the new layer of mulch

All done!
