In today's video, I'll be setting up and starting a no dig garden and following along the process for several months, growing in it from start to finish, including all of the harvests we get from this garden in 5 months. In this no-dig, or no till garden, I'm growing with the 3 sisters method of interplanting corn, with beans, squash and pumpkins. This is a companion planting technique practiced by indigenous people of North America, and it's a great combination of plants to grow over the Summer. It's an excellent way to maximize space in the garden, and you can easily grow a lot of food. I've been using no dig garden methods for awhile now and have found it to be an easy way to garden with minimal effort and input, whilst having a fantastic output of vegetables that seem to thrive in this method, and build soil whilst doing so. Such a great way to garden to protect soil life.
You can layer a whole lot of organic materials like I did, which is also called a lasagna garden (as it's a whole lot of layers), or another easy method which I've also had great growing success with, is to lay cardboard onto the grass and then put a thick layer of compost over top of this, and plant directly into it. This is the no dig method that Charles Dowding also uses and advocates for and I'm definitely a huge fan of it after seeing the results first hand.
Varieties that I grew:
Sweetcorn, Long Island Cheese pumpkin, Butternut Squash, Grey Pumpkin, Small sugar pumpkin, Scarlet runner beans, Peans, Bottle gourds, Sunflower
