Nov.2020 I started my berry patch/ garden.
From our organic hay field I had a 200'x200' patch tilled. (Around 1 acre)
8ft fence, 3ft steel 1/4" ground cloth buried half way into the ground. Electric fence around this. Still nature loves my garden.
First go at amending soils. 13 dump trucks of wood chips, 6 dump truck of black earth manure. 2 dump trucks of sand, 1 dump truck of Wollastonite mineral. Skid loads of peat moss.
All mixed and spread out in 13 rows with a manure spredder.
Still I struggle with hard clay soils in the patch.
Before the fencing I did layers of chips, soils, chips, soils.
My current soil reserves for new hoop house this year. An asparagus plot going in today.
I seem to be always looking for organic material for composting.
