Two years later
I thought I would put up a pic of before and after. My "garden" 2 years ago in July was a big patch of dirt, and very poor soil at that. Two years later, a lot of grass and clover, and many small shrubs, vines and trees are spotted around the garden. I've been composting, and spreading that around to try inriching the soil. Not a lot of money to spend, you can see I have not finished painting the fence! But I'm happy with it so far. You can't see my veggie garden which is around the corner, and my 2 apple trees, just off to the left.
Here is my little vegetable garden before and after, taken from 2 opposite directions, as I didn't have a matching "before" photo. Well, the garden still needs a lot of work, but it's coming along slowly. And I'm enjoying watching it grow. That's Tas, our cat, posing by the parsley gone to seed.

Wow, those are some before-and-after photos! You've put in a lot of work and I love the fence color, it complements everything. And I see kitty loves your garden too!
Wow what a difference from brown to Irish green! But you still need some bigger plants, right? Well yeah I know plants are expensive, so step by step you'll getting there!

You've made great progress! It looks so green and welcoming now, compared to all the brown.
