Terracing a sloping backyard to create limestone retaining walls and raised vegetable beds.

Our backyard was unusable due to a severe slope so we created retaining walls and raised beds out of limestone with level pathways and a gravel seating area.

what a great improvement. thank you for sharing. why did you chose the black star gravel? I want to get decomposed granite for our landscape bc mainly bc i love the color.

[@austinediblegardens]

I chose it for the color contrast with the white limestone. I like decomposed granite too!

Hi! Im here in Austin as well with a nearly identical yard & concept (in progress). Have you had any issues with water build-up behind the limestone walls?

[@austinediblegardens]

No we haven't.

[@JJ-fm3hr]

where do you get your seeds?

[@austinediblegardens]

Johhny's seeds, Baker Creek Seeds and others.

How much did it cost in parts & labor if u don't mind sharing...

[@austinediblegardens]

A job like this with grading, irrigation and masonry done by a professional landscape construction company will probably cost between $7000 - $10000
