Step 10Getting your topsoil

Getting your topsoil
The topsoil that we used was screened topsoil, which got rid of any roots, or extra junk that may grow in the topsoil. We found that it was cheaper to buy it in bulk, rather than buying it by the bag.

Take a tractor, or a wheel barrow, and just spread a good amount of topsoil over each one of your plots. You can put your boxes in now, or later, but you should have a good outline of where your dirt should go, as a result of turning the grass over.

Put a good amount on each plot, and then place your boxes into their positions. This way you can judge how much more you will need.
