Quick look at how I decided to build a short wall for a terraced bed and a look around at the springtime property for those who have been asking about it. The Wall is not yet complete as I made some last minute changes in the design I wanted and ran out of materials. There are many improvements that need to be made. Decideing exactly what improvements and how I wanted to do them was a bit difficult but I now have some idea about some of them. While I am still going to have a garden this year it will be reduced in size and quantity in order to focus on property improvements this year. Hopefully this will prepare us better for next year.

Thanks for posting What to do? allways the ?
by the time it gets to the point where you have to replace lumber, that single screw will have rusted enough that you can break it loose without tools. Then sawz all it clean once you pull the old material out. Dirt has some serious weight. you will probably need to brace thetop parts of the dimension uprights to keep it from leaning away from the weight.
With pressure treated wood you should get 7 or 8 years as you said.. I there a slope on the ground? Nice bed with the stones surround for your broad beans. What a cherry tree WoW! Be well
That yellow bush is beautiful. I'd like to know what it is also.
Great video!
That was a great ideal. You will get many years of use from it. I love all the trees too. I only cut scrub trees. Or damaged from weather.
Nice job. I have some stone terracing and it requires maintenance! I thought they would be maintenance free. I had pavers put down in the driveway that have faded beautifully. Build the walls little by little. It took us ten years but the look is just beautiful. Took my husband and several people ten years! lol.
I like how you are terracing that hill. As you know, that is in our future at the mountain property. It's a shame those apple trees have to go. Could they be saved by pruning severely?
Nice work Jay. Will have to catch up with the other clips to see how the luffa & corn went 😉
