Mulch

I can get a bit slack with mulching the garden one reason is I don't really like importing material from elsewhere to do it as it doesn't seem particularly sustainable. This year I have been mowing the block next door and piling all the clippings up. I left that for a few months making sure the heap had a concave dip in the top so water would penetrate rather than just run off. after turning it a couple of times over the last couple of months I put it around the vegies. It was full of worms so the resident Peewee got a feed at the same time.
