Raised Bed Gardens...Ideas, help, tips and tricks! Start living sustainably!

What happens here

Acquire sawdust, possibly from a local sawmill, often available for free or at a low cost. Use a tractor or other means to spread a thick layer of sawdust in the pathways surrounding your raised garden beds. This sawdust mulch acts as a physical barrier, suppressing weed growth and keeping the garden area tidy. It also helps retain moisture in the soil underneath and slowly breaks down, contributing to soil health over time.

Goal: Utilize sawdust, another readily available organic material, to create mulched pathways around your raised beds, effectively controlling weeds in these areas.

Tools and materials

  • Rake
  • Tractor with Front-End Loader
