Rotovating And Soil Preparation

 

Yesterday, whilst the rest of the team was spreading hoggin over the old path, Joss spent a few hours working in the Provost's garden rotovating the area that had been stripped of grass last Thursday. With the hoggin due tomorrow to complete the path restoration, a delivery of 6 tonnes of top soil was received this morning.


Having stripped all the old, mossy grass away last week, see blog entry 'Turf Stripping And Wood Chippings', the level of the soil needed to be raised before it can be grass seeded. Joss and Callum spent the morning shovelling, treading down and raking level all 6 tonnes of soil to a fine tilth.
