Northeast Gardening: stones, rocks, boulders & erratics, 0 by Kathleen

We have a quarry on our farm where they took stone out for the foundations of the old house and barns. We've run into several of the foundation rocks and used them in various places and Stan has raided the quarry on occasion. This is a very bad photo of the original rock gardens we put in a couple of years after we bought the farm.

We've since put in the hardscape for three gardens at our church using rocks from the quarry and around the farm. Our first harvest is always stone before we plant.

on the topic of erratics, we recently donated an erratic with garnets in it to a local church for a memorial to a fallen soldier.
