Sure! This is probably the best represented pic. It's the side of the yard from outside the fence (our house is on the left) and the pond is technically a rain retention area, but since we get a lot of rain this time of year, it's usually full. The back is the same...I just can't go back there without getting poison ivy! Both the side and back belong to the town and not neighbors.
Does this help?! Thanks again for your help!! Thank You!

You actually have a few options.

You just need to build a subterrainian barrier beginning where the bottom of the fence is down to about 18 inches underground or under the soil surface.

To do that is a matter of imagination. You can use treated boards, brick, flag stone, boulders, concrete.

If your husband is thinking he wants to do some kind of Boulder or brick barrier that is highly visible you can always photoshop your ideas as I mentioned before and see wether or not you think it looks funny. 😊

You can get very creative with rock and rock always looks more natural.

Most likely you won't see the back of the garden once everything is planted. 😊
