Linminore is an independent editorial site about landscaping with natural stone and gravel pathways, written with Canadian conditions in mind. The focus stays narrow on purpose: laying flagstone paths, building dry-stack retaining walls, selecting local stone, and managing drainage around hardscaping.
What the site is
The notes here are practical and descriptive. Each article walks through how a piece of work tends to go — the decisions, the sequence, and the details that matter through freeze and thaw — rather than promoting any product or trade.
How the notes are written
Articles draw on established, publicly available references and general landscaping practice. Where a number depends heavily on local soil, climate, or bylaws, the text says so instead of inventing a figure. Photographs are sourced from Wikimedia Commons under their respective licenses.
What the site is not
Linminore does not sell stone, take on projects, or replace professional advice. Structural walls, grading near buildings, and anything affecting drainage onto neighbouring land can require permits and a qualified designer. Always confirm requirements with your municipality.
