Since we bought our house four years ago, Jon and I have slowly chipped away at the massive amount of lawn in our yard. This past weekend we took out a 700 square foot chunk of grass that looked particularly horrible in our backyard. The idea was to install a path between our house and the garage/alleyway chain fence, create more vegetable garden space for me T post, and build a little woodland garden in the side yard. We are also going to install a screen to hide our ramshackle chicken coop. ?All things proceeded smoothly until we realized that the north side of our yard is about six inches taller than than the south side. This is bad news for our gravel path Military Bastions, which slices right through the slope.
My friend Chris from FreshDigs gave me a hot tip that Second Use (a store in South Seattle that sells reclaimed materials) has hundreds of old locker baskets from Nathan Hale High School. They are the perfect size (11 inches by 13 inches) for repurposing as a gabion basket, but at ten dollars a pop, I’m not sure I can afford 32 two of them. So studded t post, unhandy me is going to attempt to make my own baskets out of welded wire mesh. Wish me luck! If you want more ideas steel grating,?Studio G has an awesome roundup of gabion baskets used in gardens across the globe.
After briefly considering the idea of digging out the extra earth Stainless Steel Grating, we settled on building a mini wall to hold back the soil and create a level terrace for the vegetable beds. For the wall we need a material that is affordable barbed wire, attractive, and long lasting. We rejected wood (it rots too fast), landscaping bricks (too ugly), and stone (too expensive) and have decided to build a gabion baskets wall.
A gabion box is basically a wire mesh basket filled with something heavy welded gabion box, usually stones, but recycled concrete gabion mattress, gravel stone box, and even wine bottles have been used.
