The Problem

A Methodist Church asked me to put landscaping around a new sign they installed near the road. The church asked me to put the landscaping up because they want the church to look appealing and look somewhat decent.

Plan of Action

Go around to landscapers in the area and ask for donation or discounts on plants for the project. I will need mulch, twenty-four plants, garden edging (120 feet), two bags of peat moss (to help maintain water before the ground freezes), 225 square feet of sod. Once I get the plants I will need to loosen the soil and dig holes for the new plants. Before I put the plants into the holes I will put some peat moss on the bottom for the roots. Once I am done with the plants I will put mulch in the area to cover up the dirt, then put an edging around the area to stop the mulch from going into the grass.
