My late wife, Dottie, said nothing would grow on THAT ground. The corn grew to 6 feet tall (sweet corn). Dottie started a "compost pile". The next Spring we planted all kinds of veggies and started calling the place "Dottie's Farm". It's been Dottie's Farm ever since. Dottie's Spirit still "hangs around" here keeping the place comfortable. -Junkmanme-
