We have heavy clay soil and I want to try the no dig method.

We have lots of cardboard. We also have lots of brahpnches to chip up.

However, my compost bins are not going to give me enough to put down a thick layer.

We live where we can get a fair amount of manure.

So how do I go about doing this cardboard, mulch, wood chips thing?

I just put down the cardboard and covered it with stable bedding when we were younger and could do that. Lady Bender is 80 and I am 88 and I have to use a electric scooter to get around so we have cut back on the garden size. I’m just starting to have memory lapses and haven’t driven since December...
