I'm calling this a "more cultured hugelkultur" -- the missus likes things more when they are rectilinear.

There's only a few inches of compost so far, and most of it is filling out the sides between my pallet-wall and the mound. A neighbor has a giant pile of compost, since he does this for a living, and a slightly more distant neighbor has an even larger pile, but after 8 wheelbarrows I'm starting to wonder what the upper limit of "take as much as you want" actually is.
