I built a new garden last spring... Leveled the plot with a box blade and dug up all the rocks I could see. Then I drug a plow through it a couple times and pulled out every rock I could see. Then I dug the entire plot about 1.5 ft deep with an excavator, working through every scoop by hand pulling out every-single-rock. I leveled the ground again but somehow found more rocks. Finally, I tilled in a couple yards of compost, and managed to hit another bucket load worth of rocks... When I pulled up plants at the end of the season, guess what I found?

Planning on adding a fence this spring to the garden, and I fully expect to be digging out car size boulders that somehow appeared out of nowhere in the past 12 months...
