The trick to doing it right is to make sure your tree service chips are deep enough. I put it about 3" deep and it wasn't enough to keep the field grass from coming up. So I added another 4-6" and it worked. The veggies are so big and delicious. I do hand water once a week since we are 15" under normal rainfall this year in Or. Our str.bry. leaves froze solid last winter, but came back and produced a lot of berries. I am still getting a few this late. Many new pups for spring planting too.<br />Can't say enough about this method. It sure works wonders for us. Expanded to a field and put in blue berries, asparagus and rhubarb all of which went well beyond what I expected. Hopefully next year fruit trees on trellis cables.<br />Am not doing a Fall garden this year. Still have Swiss chard that will keep since the chips keep the ground well insulated. We may only need a row cover for coldest nights.<br />I did purchase the Back to Eden CD and plan on showing it at our church. We have a community garden in the back lot. The extra food is donated to the food pantry in town.<br />Thanks for sharing, Mrs. J.anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13214621646003640118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5829762642695585524.post-33590594283679956252013-09-17T06:27:49.601-05:002013-09-17T06:27:49.601-05:00I have featured YOUR post today!!!
