This video is all about mulching. Mulching is the process of laying decomposing plant material over your plant beds to retain water and nutrients as well as providing a layer of new compost for the following year. It also insulates the soil keeping roots warm and growing strongly. Mulching creates conditions in the soil that attract earth worms and this is really good for any planting whether it is vegetables, herbs, garden plants or fruit trees. Mulching is natures process of recycling plant matter.

We all need to do a little gardening now and then and it can be a whole lot of fun if we just get our hands down into the soil and smell that compost a little. Living life in a sustainable way is really a good idea in the next few years because the way we are currently supplied with food, energy etc. will be changing as economies shift and change in the near future. We need to find new solutions for making our lives stable and healthy and this series of film clips is what that is all about. I will be posting regular video blogs on here all about planting, gardening, vegetables, herbs and more. As I learn and visit different people I will be sharing these insights with you.
