Does that give you a better idea? It has to do with heat :)

Can't wait to see what you come up with...

    My guess is a composting pile or is it something to do with vermicomposting?

    P.S. I'm a homeschool mom too - to five kids. :) I love your blog! It's one of the best I've read in a long time.

    Hi Sandra,
    So glad you enjoy the blog - thanks so much.
    It doesn't have anything to do with composting...of any kind :) Good guess though!
    Blessings,
    Cheri

    Shucks! Vermicomposting was my guess, too... after designating a family cemetery. :o

    Hi Heidi,
    Oddly...yours wasn't the only suggestion of a cemetary :)

    Blessings,

    If there's a fence around it, you want the animals not to get to it. It's by a tree, so whatever it is, it's good for the tree. Unless it needs shade from a tree...

    I'm thinking....

    Good Christine! I am protecting it from animals - especially chickens.

    Cheri,
    What in the world are you growing over there??? I have always wondered what you would use that concrete container for, but I have never asked.

    grace and peace,

    I know.... You are going to grow lettuce under your tree. =) That will be shade for it and the fence keeps animals from eating it.

    Julie,
    We used it as a feed trough for awhile - then I wanted to do something else with it but it never got put in the proper place....the boys did that for me a few weeks ago... :)

    Marci beat me to it. That was my guess too... a lettuce bed underneath the tree.

    Worms? Are you "growing" earthworms?

    Hmm..my other guess is manure logs. LOL! I'm sure that sounds really funny especially if that's not what it is.

    A wild guess: berries, except I do not see the bare roots.

    How creating an environment for growing Mushrooms? Or... how about an safe, warm environment for Toads, or ground beattles? You have me stumped, too. I'm going to be thinking on this a while...
