Late summer/early autumn cleanup is beginning in the garden. I like to get an early start on it while the weeds and spent foliage are still green and make great material for the compost pile. I will be assured of having lots of yummy, black loamy compost for next years plantings.
Looking at the task as a whole is rather intimidating to say the least!
I prefer to use the “eating an elephant” approach and tackle it one yard (three feet) at a time.
It is going to require some deep thought, but at the top of the list is the dehydrating of some really rambunctious basil.
