Clearing a hedge and stump grinding

[cabu]

In our hedge we had the bark beetle. Three trees we had already lost and now holes in the hedge, so we decided to cut down the hedge:

A job for my Stihl!

And for my Kuno !!

For the remaining stubs I rented a grinder for one day. Price 160€/$200.

To level the dirt I ordered 16cbm/560cbft of topsoil and used Kuno again to arrange it. Took me 2 hours, but frankly you do not really see a big difference...

While I was in the garden and trimmed the trees for spring, I decided to have a big X.
After they will be growen together, maybe I will later place a treasure in between...

Yes, it is now very "naked". But the main impact is the wind. Not so nice anymore. I will place a fence and a 7ft high net to break the wind and also the visibility from the street. In one year, when the bark beetle is gone we will put some new plants.

It's late enough for replying but i also agree with you, they'd done stump grinding perfectly and the job has been done really fine.
