Putting micro-organisms to work! For You.A brief introduction to sheet mulching:5 basic layers of organic material, designed to minimize labor, maximize nutrients and to discourage weeds. (before)  (tamed)  (chicken manure --> high nitrogen)  (corrugated cardboard --> biodegradable but not readily permeable to weeds)  (aged horse manure --> plants love this)  (straw --> thick mulch)  (compost --> top dressing and more nutrition)   (whole garden in various stages) Do not use this technique for a native plant garden -- I don't think a manzanita would know what to do with all of this food. This is a beautiful foundation to a food producing garden. namaste Posted 2/20/2007 link
