Butterflies Cat Lover Composter Organic Gardener Garden Ideas: Level 1
I had this bright idea of using the walls of a raised bed to enclose my hugelkulture bed. I bought a 3x6 foot bed when it was discounted and filled it up with sticks that fell out of my maple, plus other fallen sticks I found around the neighborhood.

Today I finished topping it off with 2- and 3-year-old leaf mould. Pic below.

I probably need a thick layer of compost on top, right? Maybe next spring?
