Introduction to Permaculture Part 11

ItP Garden in Stages...
1.How it looked before we began.
2. Soil forked over, weed and worm tea poured on, the paths defined, and the worm tower installed. (Watering just beginning.)
3.Organic soil, Mushroom and Organic Compost Added. Arrowroot, Paulownia and Comfrey leaves chopped up and applied to garden beds.
4. Wet newspapered - paths included.
5. Mulched with weed and seed-free hay (straw) then watered again.
6. Morag teaching.
Then we got to plant! It was morning tea time, and as it was so hot, we didn't plant out much. Morag will fill the bed in the cool later.

 7. The kids helping Morag plant out. They were our 'newspaper soakers' also!
