I have 2 places in Conn. farm in Woodstock,, my 44,000 lb excavator has trouble moving some of of the pebbles. 1 1/2 hour away near New Haven coastal, no rocks. In Woodstock, when I hit digging like that in first pictures I say thanks for the easy day.

If you can figure out how to get them down here, the last retail price I heard was around 40¢/lb for them! Seriously! I must have used about $10,000,000 worth when we were building retaining walls in Indiana.

Worse thing is The Citys Keep Getting Closer all the time .

Amen!

We have no rocks at all on our place and next door there are tons. It's glacier effect up here.

Kind of glad in a way, it would be awful having so many in the soil.

At my moms place, there are a few rocks when you dig deep but only a little. My dads is all dirt. Atleast until they brought in pit run to level a spot on a steep hill. They brought in truck load after truck load of it. I collected some nice boulders and smaller rocks. Recently, I spread a huge pile of manure on the top and used the blanket harrow, and my new harrow to grade it. Then took the skidsteer out there and got a huge scoop of rocks out of there. Now its an outdoor arena. I will take some rocks off your hands though. :D

Even though Bancroft is the "Mineral Capitol" of Ontario, my wife still had me build her a Rock Garden. Each year she has a fantastic crop....

I've got so many rocks that you need to have livestock in pairs so that one can lift the rock while the other one grazes :eek::eek:. The areas that are not solid rock are what is called glacial moraine -- sand and Lanark pea gravel:p.
My wife has me build her a rock garden as well but then she needs a step ladder to weed it.

when we dug our basement we were hoping for rock to do landscaping with - ended up with a 9' deep hole in the clay.
1/2 mile north of us a neighbor dug his basement and hit nothing but rock -- so we hired his excavator to move about 95 tons of it to our yard.

In Middle Tennessee, we don't have rocks, we have A ROCK. I think there is one big rock under the entire middle of the state.
