No one seems to know what a Berm is in regards to landscaping. I know mountain bikers use them and according to the dictionary it can help block tanks but we're using it for a less nefarious way. Our berm is a landscaping feature that doesn't have to be mowed (!) and helps block sound from the busy road. To make one: Create a shape for your berm first then fill it up with dirt, sand, leaves, dead bodies - whatever creates mass. Keep filling it until it’s at least 18 inches high and slopes down from the center to the sides. Add some perennials like grass, mums or tulips and then cover with weed block and mulch. After it is filled and decorated you can edge it with large stones. We got ours free from Facebook Marketplace for FREEEEE! Each year it grows in more and more. It’s now a beautiful spot in our yard!
