Putting micro-organisms to work! For You.

A brief introduction to sheet mulching:

5 basic layers of organic material, designed to minimize labor, maximize nutrients and to discourage weeds.

(before)

(tamed)

(chicken manure --> high nitrogen)

(corrugated cardboard --> biodegradable but not readily permeable to weeds)

(aged horse manure --> plants love this)

(straw --> thick mulch)

(compost --> top dressing and more nutrition)




(whole garden in various stages)



Do not use this technique for a native plant garden -- I don't think a manzanita would know what to do with all of this food.

This is a beautiful foundation to a food producing garden.

you are...

you are what your deepest desire is. as is your desire, so is your intention. as is your intention, so is your will. as is your will, so is your deed. as is your deed, so is your destiny.

from the Upanishads
