Gardening can be as little work as planting the way mother nature does,
. . . or as much work as you want to do, tilling or no tilling.

During World War 2, when the men went off to War,
. . . the women went to work in the factories,
. . . coming home, both physical and mentally exhausted,
. . . then going out doors in the fresh air, picking food and flowers,
. . . fresh from the garden, for supper, RENEWED their spirits.

After supper, any garbage and water,
. . . was taken out to the compost pile,
. . . in the center of the garden, for recycling.

Take a look at how simple it was.

Gardens can consume a lot of work, time and money, or just create a 9 foot circle with:
. . . . . . recycle waste food and water into the 3 foot wide circle center compost, that feeds the surrounding garden,
. . . . . . Center Compost is held in with 3 foot tall chicken wire, that support climbing plants,
. . . . . . Close planting the 3 foot area, between the wire fence, and the surrounding rocks keeps down the weeds,
. . . . . . Marigolds are beautiful, strong smelling herbaceous flowers, that Bees love, and Naturally Repel Mosquitoes.
