I have been growing vegetables for around 40 years in Western Sydney with varied success, but then I came across Charles and No Dig in 2020 and what he said about the whole No Dig and compost system just seemed to make a whole lot of sense.
Since I started putting into practice all the No Dig ideals our garden has really taken off and is giving us loads more vegetables. I have also installed a 3 bay compost system which is starting to give us plenty of good compost compared to our earlier attempts which took forever to decompose and were full of weed seeds. I am definitely going to keep using the No Dig method for all our gardens.
