    Yes, that is true Paul started with wood chips, I run a group on MeWe for Back to Eden Gardening, and Deep Mulch method.


    I have found that the magic starts when you combine nitrogen with the wood chips from like chicken manure. One needs to have a constant supply of wood chips to really make them work, I have been moving toward growing my own mulch with Bolivian sunflowers and leaves here in Florida. These provide a constant supply of cover for the soil which I have an abundance of. I don’t always have a constant wood chips myself, but I do have a constant supply of leaves.

    I did go whole hog into wood chips… It is a good exercise program 🙂
