Beginning the double-dig. Behind me, you can see the five by twenty foot growing area. Here, I'm digging the first trench and using a digging fork to loosen the soil in the trench. See John Jeavons' book "how to grow more veg." or go to www.growbiointensive .org
The second component of biointensive gardening is deep bed preparation. (see John Jeavons' book "how to grow more vegetables", or www.growbiointensive .org)
This video is the first of four videos which show the double-digging method. Here, you see us spreading compost about an inch thick over the five by twenty foot bed.
