Mulch for Soil Protection

This season we have really doubled down for mulch, which all of our long-season crops will have. Our goal is to keep as much soil covered as possible for as long as possible. We want to have a soil rich in life, provide a food source for decomposers and keep everything from drying out. Additionally it will help us a lot with weed control.


As the sun melts the snow, it sure does feel good knowing that our soil is not exposed to the elements and keeping all our tiny soil critters vital to intensive vegetable production protected.

We’ll see how the beds perform over the season and see what we can do to improve the methods.
