Thanks!!!

I am going to go kick some tires this week.

The thought behind the PTO tiller is when I get everything cleared, it would be easier to prep the soil for grass and such. A local rental shop has these quite reasonable.

I asked my sister and she has a Troy Built. They got it in 1989 and never had an issue with it. A bit out of my price range tho.

7-8000 sq ft is about what will get amended this year. It may not all get planted, that will be up to whoever want's to test out their green thumb. My dad wants lot's of pickles and cabbage.

A couple years ago, someone posted a picture of their garden. They built raised beds in the shape of a capital "E". I thought that was pretty cool and drew one up. I bought the lumber to build a couple last year, so I'll be trying that out this year. There is a spot where I can put a couple without risk of trees busting them up when they come down. I'll dig the CAD file up and post it later.
