Hate to see people cover good top soil, it takes so long for nature to produce and once covered, it's gone. I just stripped an old garden spot for a foundation and driveway. We hauled off 200 yards of beautiful black loam. It's stockpiled for screening and selling this spring. The gravel 6"- that came out of the frost wall hole was used for a base for the driveway. Do you think the loam that is covered is deep,worth saving? How deep is the clay on top? Can it be removed to get to the loam? If so, strip the clay, remove and pile the top soil, buy gravel to grade the lot to a level minus the thickness of top soil you want to spread or have. When they haul the gravel in have them haul the clay out, save money hauling two ways.Just a thought, I don't know if you built in the woods and the soil isn't much and full of stumps or in one of those incredible Iowa fields.

I'll bet the soil that is burried is just like the soil that is out in the fields. You had better give the wife a bucket of rocks to get your attention when the time comes, second thought, tennis balls, wouldn't want to dent the tractor.
