The Raised Patio

We were able to save one part of the old house. In the seventies the concrete porch was added to the house. I wanted to save it and use it in the garden. For the longest time it was where we sat to cool off and rest. The garden was designed around it. It sits behind our house now in the back. The soil was rough. It took hours and hours to sort through the crud for clean soil.

This was the soil before – debris from everything rotting around the house, the slate roof, and straight out trash.

Everything cleaned, sorted, and sifted.

The after is amazing!!! The chairs were made by high school students. I bought the lumber and they did it as a project.
