Today's video is all about chop and drop: the permaculture secret landscapers don't want you to know about! There is no need for lots of expensive mulches and fertilizers for healthy and productive fruit trees, landscaping and gardening. With chop and drop gardening, you can repurpose free biomass for soil mulching and feeding!
This video describes how mulch works and how we can repurpose biomass to simulate a forest floor for the best soil mulching practices to keep your trees and veggie garden healthy and thriving. The goal is to reuse organic matter to create a sustainable system that requires as little input from us as possible, and that will make our plants and our wallets very happy. While some supplemental fertilizing may be beneficial in certain cases, the amounts required can be reduced dramatically, much to the chagrin of fertilizer companies.
