why not go up instead of going down. build raised beds. this will make the work
easier, will not require a tractor and make mitigating soil contaminants much
easier.

That is: Plow sole blade to break up the hard pan

Could this be moved with a backhoe or shovel about 3 inches (enough to remove
the rock) and then that portion recycled to another gravel area? After that I
would suggest using a plow sole bade to bread up the hard pan before adding
soil. This all needs to be tractor work. Does anyone else have suggestions? We
are going to be doing this as well this next year.

Subject: [Community_garden] gardening on road base?
Does anyone have experience building a community garden on a site covered
in road base? This is a parking lot, with the top layer of asphalt
removed, but about 18 inches of road base gravel. This would be for a
long-term, permanent garden.
Any advice welcome!
