Easy you guy's one thing at a time.

I this will be my 3rd year here in mid summer. You'll notice those baby evergreens I put them in this year. I pulled out three of those grasses, but don't worry I transplanted them at my neighbors house.

The middle is a Blue Spruce.
Soil I am going to do something with that slope not sure what yet, but you had a good idea. I was also thinking about bringing a stone wall across between the 2 Willows and filling it in and planting natives, this and that. That's another thread.......
Apple the back of the house is yet another future project, but it is shaded all day 'cept a few hours early and late. In the third pic that is due East the sun comes up basically between the 2 evergreens behind that pool. I am planning on doing something there this year.
Back to compost spot, bottom of yard is out than. I didn't like it much either. If my yard was flat it would for sure go there. That's my problem so many good place but there is a reason not to put one in each place as well. What "I" can give up is the real question.
Any other ideas on anything but preferably the Compost pile pick of choice maybe.
