Planting a Best Practices Orchard & Garden


We started with the clearing. Mulching everything in place: 1 to 3 feet of wood chips cover the site. Then we brought in Bountiful Backyards to plan and plant. This Durham group is converting city lots and yards to urban farms, using permaculture techniques. Great design. Hard work. Fruits, perennials, companions, pollinators all now in over a very long week.
