In the video recorded on 5-15-2022, we shared a garden on a property we maintain and put a garden on.
The garden started directly on grass.
If you want to start a garden, you can start on grass. Overtime through mulching, the grass will disappear.
You can 1st lay cardboard boxes down on the grass.
After 3 weeks, the grass will die down. You will be able to plant.
Then you mulch as the plant start to grow.
Overtime the grass will disappear.
Free mulch to use in your garden
Fall leaves can be raked in fall and mulch with.
Tree mulch: you can get wood chips mulch for free from the city to mulch your garden.
Boxes: you can lay carboard boxes in the pathways to keep grass and wild plants down.
Wild plants: when you cut wild plants in your garden, you can mulch with that.
Grass leaves: you can mow your property and rake the grass to mulch the garden. While the grass is still growing in your garden, you could cut them or mow and use the grass leaves to mulch where you are growing your vegetables.
If you wonder what to plant first in your garden, you could start with large seeds like squash seeds, beans, peas potatoes, or young plants. In this garden, we planted Egyptian onion bulbils and garlic bulbs. We planted strawberry that I dug from home to propagate. They didn’t survive. We dug rhubarb, sunchoke, sorrel, and horseradish to plant.
We planted them in 2019. We purchased alfalfa hay from a farmer to mulch the garden. In 2020, we didn’t visit the garden. In summer 2021, when I visited, everything survived 1.5 years of neglect but the strawberry.
We visited few times in 2021.
Months later, we visited again on 5-15-22 the day of this video.
You can see how plants are doing well in the garden.
You can start your garden in a frugal way and introduce perennial vegetables to your garden. Overtime, you would grow enough to cross few vegetables and spices of your grocery list. You could then use that saving toward other grocery staples you do not grow. Your grocery budget will remain the same even if grocery prices go up.
