I would have turfed a bigger base for my hugelkultur bed, turfing at least one extra spade width on each side of the bed, maybe two, I also would have dug long turfs one spade blade wide, with not too much soil attached, so they could easily cover the logs and would stay in place. My turfs were too small and thick and were difficult to position on my steep hugelkultur base. | I would have turfed a bigger base for my hugelkultur bed, turfing at least one extra spade width on each side of the bed, maybe two, I also would have dug long turfs one spade blade wide, with not too much soil attached, so they could easily cover the logs and would stay in place.

Hugelkultur is my favorite method of growing. It’s easy, great for the environment, doesn’t require digging and produces a beautiful, sustainable, productive garden bed. It’s like an extreme version of composting in place, and it’s a really good way to start with permaculture techniques. | |||
