Hi Frenchy.

Welcome. Stones aren't a problem. Use them for a stone wall--which I love--and yes, MW, raised gardens solve everything. :lol: .

HI there and welcome :wave:
Let us be lovely
And let us be kind
Let us be silly and free
It won't make us famous
It won't make us rich
But damn it how happy we'll be!
