This year our garden grew with a lot less weeds and a lot less work for us. After many fights with robust quack grass, we decided to give Garden Mats a go this year and they have been AMAZING!
Garden Mats are environmentally friendly, non-plastic mats that retain moisture and do an awesome job suppressing weed growth. The only places weeds popped up were in the precut holes.
Once our garden is fully harvested in Fall, we will plant winter rye as a cover crop and then till it into the soil in early Spring to build up nutrients that the soil needs to stay healthy and balanced without use of any fertilizers. Cover crops are also called “green manure.”
We do not use chemicals in any of our soils to include our hay field.
Here’s to a bountiful garden harvest this year and to building a bigger garden next year….
They're here! They're here!
Ready. Set. Grow.
Growing....
