Hay Bale Gardening Going Strong

I'm still gardening the way I taught in my first book on "Hay Bale Gardening."

In Chapter three I mention using bales as a windbreaker. It really works. I usually get broken plants during a storm but not now.

I line up my bales around my garden and when the bales get old and spoiled, I break them apart and use it for mulch.  Mulch keeps the ground moist and in hot weather I hardly need to water.
