Yes, but now you've removed 2 or 3 inches of dirt, as you say below. How

Maybe I should put fiberglass insulation inside before putting the cover

You need to talk to knowledgable popele in your area, maybe at good
garden shops, maybe the state university extension, the kind that
answers garden and farming questions.

I live in Batlimroe where it ges down to 10 sometimes, maybe 0, and
I'm still trying to find out if I have to drain my outside faucet,
which only sticks out of the brick wall by the length of the spigot.
Sometimes it's a pain in the neck, and I htink most of my neighbors
don't do it. * Anyone know the temp and time period for which one has
to drain the pipes to the garden outlet?


They sell styrofoam covers *for the winter., with foam rubber gaskets
where they touch the wall. *Do those work?
