Monarch butterfly populations have experience a dramatic decline in recent years. One of the issues is a decline in the amount of milkweed on the landscape, the only plant eaten by monarch caterpillars, making it fundamental to the future success of this species. In reaction to the decline, the Service is working with partners across the nation to plant more milkweed.
In western North Carolina, the Asheville Field Office has worked with Monarch Rescue, Toe River Valley Partnership, and several other partners, including many school, to plant pollinator gardens. Students at Yancey County’s Mountain Heritage High School recently came out to plant a pollinator garden behind their school.

Digging in the Kenyan soil gets harder the deeper that you go. It appears to be almost like a black clay.
Break it up with a bar and scoop it out by hand. Very tedious and time consuming, but she was a trooper.
I know its fallen down
Got my headphones on and I won't hear a sound
No its all broke down
Eyes out on the road but no-one comes along, when you want them to.

This is the way to dig razor clams, on one knee, using a clam shovel. It's much easier on your back than a clam gun but you have to act fast with the shovel. I also recommend hip boots or just plain old shoes. Mid-calf boots fill up with water when a sneaker wave comes in.
The razor clams grow to about 5 or 6 inches on the Washington coast. The farther north, the colder the water, the bigger the clams.

With a new level backyard we needed to put in a retaining wall. The first step was building a trench.
Progress in middle of second (partial) day - the end of digging is in sight!
Installing a rain garden at the bungalow. First step: dig out ~9 inches of soil in the ~100 sq ft garden bed. 6 inches of that will be replaced (with compost + soil, then a layer of mulch).
We spent an entire Saturday digging crab grass out of this 12'x10' plot and then digging holes for the "fence posts"
A number of neighbors joined us last weekend to salvage several plants and landscaping materials from the site of the future Brooklyn and Roosevelt light rail stations. The salvage was in advance of our demolition work at the site. The plants, including Barberry, Nandina and Boxwood, were available on a first-come first-served basis.

With a new level backyard we needed to put in a retaining wall. The first step was building a trench.
Trenches were dug for the waddles to be buried 3/4 under ground, trenches were also used for walking the slope as we worked to minimize sliding and erosion damage from working on the slope. Waddles were buried with mulch and a few sprigs left unburied that will leaf next spring. The buried waddles will root and stabilize the hill with time.
