"Thank you Peter! That is what I was looking for, a local source for materials for this project and having a "recipe" will be a big help too. How far does a wheelbarrow's worth go when doing fences?"
A cubic foot of concrete weighs about 150lbs. The wheelbarrow recipe that I gave, plus water, would probably produce around 120lbs of mortar. You could cover about 15 square feet at 1" thick. You might be able to keep the wall down to 3/4" thick or less if you are careful with your wire tying.
