finished up the raised bed in the rain

Despite the rain this morning, still got out and with some help finished the raised bed.

1. Started with joining the corners 
Top view
2. Once together time to fill. Always good to line the bottom with large sticks or trunks of trees. Helps hold moisture and helps nourish the bed.
3. Mushroom soil from neighbors mixed with chicken coop bedding and also my yards topsoil. Add lots of water!
4. Add an inch of the nicest topsoil and voila! A raised bed. Now water generously and let settle.  Planting in a week.
Chickens hung out too.
