How to put your garden to sleep in fall

In fall, you could mulch your garden with fall leaves you racked on your property.

If you don’t spray your yard, you could use your fall leaves to mulch your vegetable garden for free and compost at the same time. Fall leaves would keep the ground moist in your garden. Your garden would hold moisture from the snow fall after it melted if you mulch your garden.

In spring your garden would hold moisture from the rain fall as well. In summer, you don’t need to water your garden.

By the next fall the leaves would be mostly composted, and your garden would be ready for the fall leave mulch again.

If you grow perennials, feed your land, and let your land feed you.

Return the tree leaves back to the land allowing them to break down releasing nutrients the tree with their long roots pull from deep the ground on the surface for your plants to benefits.

Mulch with fall leaves to keep lives in your ground feeding on the leaves and producing rich compost for your vegetables.

Grow your vegetables to save money and eat healthy.
