I had 6 yards of 50/50 - topsoil/compost mix delivered for my garden this year. I also had 1 yard of sand for my new underground gutter drain pipes which i'm only half done with.
The total cost was $200. $50 of that was for delivery. It doesn't look like a lot but it was; 7 yards of dirt turned into 72 wheelbarrow loads to the backyard.

By this point it wasn't as much a garden as it was an area of my yard FILLED with weeds. Next year i'm using Preen for sure to prevent that from happening. I spent a good hour pulling enough weeds to fill a garbage can.But lets start with the good stuff. The tomatoes, carrots, pumpkins and corn are growing great. Everything else isn't.





Here's what it looked like after pulling the weeds. Notice the big pile on the right.
and here's the new compost pile, maybe i'll end up with some good dirt for next year
