Garden Preparation

Today, if I can overcome the cold, the garden will be tilled and the pile of grass clippings and the mulch pile will be mixed into the soil. We've had an old bit of wire fencing tied in a circle holding a very large pile of grass clippings since October (from when we dethatched the lawn) which is now ready to go into the soil. In past years we made the mistake of putting this directly into the garden - not a good idea because the grass will grow.
