In this video, I'm showing you how to get your garden ready for spring by combining composting, winter chores, and sustainable gardening practices - all inspired by Jefferson, the American Expat. In my previous video, Jefferson shared his unique approach to composting, which focuses on repurposing materials and working with nature. Today, I'm applying those same principles in my own small garden. I'll take you through the steps I follow to prepare for spring planting, including harvesting worm castings (vermicompost), mulching, and prepping the soil. These methods not only help improve soil health but also promote sustainability in the garden.
Throughout this video, you'll learn how to use fresh compost and finished vermicompost to enrich your soil, and I'll explain the benefits of mulching to protect your garden over the winter. I'll also talk about how Jefferson's composting methods work in small spaces and under trees, and how these practices can give your garden a head start in the spring. Whether you have a small garden like mine or a larger outdoor space, these composting tips can help reduce waste while building a healthier, more sustainable garden.
I've been following Jefferson's methods to prep my garden for the season, and I'm excited to share how they're working for me. Composting and mulching now can give you a head start on spring planting by improving soil structure and promoting plant growth when the warmer weather arrives. If you haven't yet, make sure to check out my previous video where I dive deeper into Jefferson's composting style for more inspiration and tips.
