Gotta love craigslist. Unload another truck load of awesome free landscaping rocks for my pond and rock garden! #epicyardfarm #ediblegarden #arizonagardening #permaculture #urbangarden

Sorry for the flat photo... Can't seem to show the two levels that I have dug out for the pond. All dug and now we just have to build the frame for the above ground rock wall. Making progress, slowly but surely! #epicyardfarm #sunkengarden #arizonagardeni

Back yard pond and sunken garden progress was made before I fly back to NY at 4 in the morning. Some day I'll learn what laziness feels like ;)

Not entirely sure if I will make much progress today since I woke up feeling pretty sick but base deck is done and bench decking was started yesterday before stopping and this morning a water lily bloomed.

Pond deck area is now completed! There are things to plant and other projects to do, but now we have the perfect spot for doing morning yoga and relax by the pond! #epicyardfarm #sunkengarden #naturalpond #ediblegarden #permaculture

I know, I know... I am a crazy woman for spoiling my pond fish with the best food I can give them. This will help me train them to eat from my hand and provide nutritious food for them, because they bring me much joy to hang out in the sunken garden oasis
