What happens here
Begin by taking a shovel of the wet concrete mix from your mixing container (likely a wheelbarrow, though not fully visible). Carefully place the concrete into the excavated trench directly behind the installed paver edging. Ensure that the concrete is spread consistently along the length of the pavers, providing a substantial base for the supportive buttress. This initial placement is crucial for creating a solid foundation for the subsequent shaping and finishing steps.
Goal: Lay down the initial concrete foundation for paver support.
