Winter Mulching

Harvest Compost (grape pumice)We just picked up several tons of Harvest Compost from Upper Valley Disposal & Recycling (http://www.uvds.com/compostsales.htm). This is the time of year to get your Lasagne (Layering) Compost spread out into your garden and yard to reduce weeds. The layering of Compost now, helps to restore your soil for Spring plantings by adding nutrients, microorganisms and worms. The lasagne method suggests that you wet the soil and then apply cardboard or newspaper over the entire area, do not leave any soil uncovered. Spread 3-6" of compost over the entire area and let nature do the rest. Next Spring you will be glad you did this.

My worm farming hobby began in 1999. I soon became amazed by the hard working wigglers eating my kitchen garbage and organic matter. I turned my hobby into a business in 2005. The health, vigor, color and taste of my fruits and vegetables have increased dramatically. My soil Biology has been improved and enhanced with the use of Vermicompost and Aerated Worm Tea.
