“Everything that Bush touches turns to manure in public policy.”
Cow manure is my saviour
Cow manure is cheap fertiliser that build up the nutrients in soil. I get cow manure from a local dairy farm. I need to do this regularly as the soil here on the headland is just empty! Well I have been working hard over the past year to build it up and add much to it! I have a compost now / new house and new garden.

I use what ever I can to build up the soil. I even go so far as to bring a bucket of soil home from various places in so making like a soil soup!
Remember, that organic matter is depleted every day as it is broken down by the soil micro-organisms and their friends. So replenishing organic matter in the soil to continuously supply the hungry vegetable gardens with the nutrients they need is a never ending job.
This is why its is so sparse in the yard; we rent. We are making better friends with the owner of the house and I think he doesn’t mind us adding the gardens that we have so far! After all how could anyone get into any strife for growing things! Yes it would be immoral don’t you think.
