Hello.

I have a PERFECT spot for a garden at the top of my hill. It is very
flat

===========================

Obviously it's not PERFECT at all, far from it, what you have is a pile of
trash/garbage.

Without a better description, hopefully a photograph of the area depicting
detail of the topography, all anyone can offer you is wild speculation.
From what you've said so far the best I can suggest is to bulldoze that
hill
down to it's original base to get rid of all the buried debris.

=======================

brooklyn,

It's not necessarily garbage but it is fill. I can't dig to the
bottom because, like I said, it is 25-30 feet from the original base
to the top of my hll now.

They made an area at the top of my hill that is almost perfectly flat
which is 70-feet long by 35- to 40-feet wide. Underneath some amount
of soil (I am thinking between 2 or 3 feet), there is fill: rock,
concrete blocks, all sorts of stuff I bet. The water just drizzles
right thru it like a sieve. It is especially bad during the hot, dry
season.

The sun shines on the area all day long.

That is the best I can describe it.

=========

If it's demolished building material and whatevers you don't even know then
it's garbage.
Doesn't sound like you have much of a view out the back, eh? Short of
removal I think your best bet is to build a terraced garden arrangement on
its face using plants that can tolerate low water conditions, and perhaps
interspaced with some koi ponds and waterfalls, anything that adds some
aesthetic value. But it's really not a good spot for a vegetable garden
way up on top of a refuse heap (who wants to trot up and down a steep 30
foot high rise several times a day anyway and be carrying stuff too, just
plain sillyness). If anything you want to do crop farming on bottom land,
the lowest points on your property.
