Healthy soil and sustainable growing

[pete <pete.rout@virgin.net>]

When people talk to me about raised beds I never advise boxing them
in.  They always harbour pests such as slugs and ants.  You
also lose valuable micro climates on the sides of the beds as they curve
to the centre.

I agree with Gene.  I stopped double digging years ago.  I stopped using the term "raised bed" and use "permanent bed".  As organic materials are added, they will slowly get higher.
