Square Foot Garden Design in Hugelkultur Wood Garden

[sociallinkz]

I have shown you guys other videos of setting up my hybrid hugel beds.  This is my own version of a hugelkultur garden.  A hugelkultur bed one with wood in the garden bed, but is of a MUCH larger scale meant for large amounts of produce for larger amounts of land, so I created one to be built for your back yard.

I show you in the video how I measured out my square food garden design.  I tried to make everything as natural as possible.  I tried to use hemp twine and sticks from around the yard, so any seeping into the ground is just nutrients.

You can place  border around your garden to make it look more like a typical garden, but I decided against it for water flow reasons. (Side Note: Notice the broadleaf plants growing in the bed.  This is a great sign that the grass that I added to the bed is chemical free, so this is great for plants.  Best thing to do at this point is to pull up the plants and drop in place, so they will add the harvesting nutrients back to the ground.)

Now the video:
