Large Mulching project in Sherborn


Today, I am with Rich and Guillerme putting down a large amount of mulch on a property that the other crew had been doing a lot of planting on. this property is in Sherborn and last year the owner was rehabbing the house. they had a circular driveway installed and a new planting was done in the bed on the inside of the driveway. (picture, is from last summer)

We will be using a dark brown pine bark mulch and it ended up that we used 37 yards of mulch here. It was a rainy cool day and my back acted up again, and again my SUNJING came to the rescue. It was a lot of work and we finished up around 5:30 PM.

There is more work to be done here by the other crew, a lawn area has to be loamed and seeded next week.

Wellesley and Needham Fertilizing


Today, we will be in Wellesley and Needham fertilizing our customer's properties. We will be doing all of the off-campus properties of Babson College and Olin College.

Here is a pic of Rich, using the power spreader to take care of a Babson House. You can see that spring, has not yet come around and there are no leaves on the trees. But in about 3-4 weeks it will be a completely different view. May is my favorite time of year, all of the ornamental tree's are in full bloom, and the other deciduous trees have there new leaves out.

The cool spring time weather, has had my back aching a bit, good thing I had some SUNJING with me today. All I have to do is rub it on my lower back and in a few minutes the ache is gone, amazing stuff and it is so easy to carry around with me.

Tomorrow, we will be continuing on the fertilization route, in Dover, Holliston and Sherborn, Massachusetts. I will not be finished but close to it.
