Day 258

I started my potato plot finally.  I was going to put it in the front yard, but decided the up keep with the gum tree seedlings coming up was too much this year, so plopped it in the back yard.

I love the no dig style of gardening, just add some kind of straw, manure, compost, newspaper and repeat the layers.  I'll be creating more of these in this area and hopefully paths in between of some type of material like crushed granite or bricks, not sure yet, depends what's available and easiest.

  1. I agree Suse. We used this technique on one of our gardens in Bundanoon. Much easier than breaking your back trying to dig clay as we did in current garden. Good luck - still have those plants for you!
