Yes, if you want to give more good soil to your plants, soil stacks nicely
if you just push it into a pile. It also then makes nice deep little paths
you can stack with straw or mulch to walk on.

Subject: [Community_garden] old tires
Thanks for the advice. I am just going to use them to plant some native,
non edible plants in the poorly drained/waterlogged areas of the garden.
The potential risk is too high since all of gardening is done with
children, many of them under the age of 12. Maybe I can attract some
beneficial insects/wildlife to help pollinate the food crops I have
planted in the other, non tire, beds.
