It’s Memorial Day weekend and hopefully we don’t get any more frost warnings so it’s time to plant the garden.  Hmm, garden, that requires a tilled area in which to plant. This presents a problem because we don’t own a tiller but we do have a wide variety of implements for our tractor that should accomplish the task of removing sod and breaking up the soil.

So what to use? Bucket on the tractor to skim off soil and dirt box to break up the first few inches?  Nope, did that last year, that’s old news.  2 bottom plow? Can’t too close to the fence.

Ah ha! Backhoe!  Dig a 4’ hole, dump sod in hole and fill back in.  Yup, that sounds a heck of a lot more fun!
