It’s about that time of year to start thinking about adding compost to the garden. Some of the best compost? Your readily available everyday grass clippings. Mix with leaves or wood chips. Your garden will love you! 


Try this order:
Bottom layer = Grass clippings, shredded wood and leaves
Middle layer – Manure or fertilizer as your nitrogen source
Top layer – Soil
