It takes a lot of work, time and money to develop three thousand feet of terraced beds and over eight miles of Trails and Roads.
  • Trails

Most of our Garden trails are built using a Bobcat-type Skid Steer Loader.  There is less impact to the environment and they can operate in a much smaller area than larger machines.

  • Flower Beds

First the Bobcat levels and shapes the bed building it up higher than the trail on the upper side.  Once Beds are built out comes the old Troy Bilt to work in Sand, Organic Matter and Fertilizer.

Terracing is done using a Bobcat-type Skid Steer Loader.  There is less impact to the environment and they can operate in a much smaller area than larger machines.
