Nice to see the fall colors in the leaves! I just picked up some maple leaves which had blown over to our front yard in the winds. Nice way to mulch it on your bed!

Hello man, a question. Do you wash your potatoes thoroughly? or do you wash them at all?
thanks. -
Another good way to enrich the soil is to plant a cover crop like peas or beans, then sow them under before they flower. Great video, thank you!

Nice video, Will. This brings me back to my days of organic gardening. I remember learning from Rodale's "Encyclopedia of Organic Gardening." Let's see, plants need nitrogen, phosphorous and potash. I know there are many other sources of plant nitrogen besides even leaves such as grass clippings and green cover crops plowed under like snow peas, etc. Sources of phosphorous and potash can be rock powders plus wood ashes for potash. They were fun times, wish I could do it again, but I've got a restrictive landlord.

Great idea! I have always had my leaves picked up by my lawn guy because the trees always used to get sprayed, making the leaves unsuitable for adding to organic compost. But I haven't had the trees treated in a few years so the leaves should be clean. I'm going to rake them up between the lawn guy's visits this fall and add them to my winter compost.
