Hi Gaelle,

I'm actually moving to Fort Collins in July and would love to meet up to talk about your project and ideas for the land, and equally the chance to meet new like minded permies.

I've been a builder/gardener/design for a number of years, and I'm always looking for new projects to get involved with.

My initial thought was perhaps lining the road edges with wood that tends to inhibit growth. So cedar, walnut or locust. This is of course assuming you had access to a quantity of fallen timber that could be set aside for this purpose.

For changing the ph of the driveway, I would be concerned about the runoff into the rest of the yard. I wouldn't want to risk creating another problem for the sake of weed removal.
