In celebration of World Soil Day (FAO), I collaborated with @CharlesDowding1nodig on building a new no dig garden in my climate here in San Diego. Charles built a new bet in the UK, and we compared notes and strategies.

As I’ve developed as a gardener, my respect and care for soil has grown immensely. Encouraging soil development through minimal disturbances and high-quality inputs is of paramount importance.

Both Charles and I thought it would be informative to show you how to approach a no-dig garden bed based on our own unique climates, soil inputs, and weed conditions.

This 5th of December is World Soil Day, organized by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations.
