To begin my project, I had one adult rototill the project site pad. Then, a day later , we excavated 4” of dirt from the site pad depositing it over the retaining wall onto the slope below so we could reuse it later. After that, we shoveled base rock into wheelbarrows and transported the wheel barrels from the parking lot to the project site pad and spread the base rock that was dumped from the wheelbarrows. Then, I had one adult level & tamp the site pad with a plate tamper. We then transported mulch from the site parking lot to the site slope, distributed & mixed the mulch with the discarded dirt from day 1. On day 2, we dug out terraces and shoveled the mulch into them. After that, we shoveled the decomposed granite onto the site pad and tamped it again with the plate tamper. After, I had one adult use the hardener to harden the granite into a path.
Would also like to thank the following people and companies for helping to fund the project: Cresco Equipment Rentals (Kevin Gose), offered unlimited use of heavy duty equipment rentals at no cost; M&M Cooling Company LP ($400); Mc Ivors Ace Hardware; and Tri-City Rock.
