Solar Plot Reclamation

I have finally cut down the Mimosa Tree and realaimed a portion of my solar plot. It was in the backyard and so doesn't affect the temperature of the house which faces south.

There is still a bit of shade around but I can now put at least three 4x4 gardening boxes in the area where the tree was shading. I already have a small mound where there is garlic and squash in front of the shed just this side of the remaining trunk. That is where another tree used to be and is a great place to grow things since the roots and ramains have rotted for some time and I have built a fire there a couple of times until the fire department said I couldn't. Who knew.
