I'm experimenting with the suggestions and philosophy of Masanobu Fukuoka from his book One Straw Revolution. After harvest, Mr. Fukuoka sowed clover and lightly spread straw over his fields. I decided to try this on the lasagna beds and the Hugelkultur, too. I sowed clover seeds on the beds in October.
In the background are two Hugelkultur beds covered with red clover. I will plant cucumbers and squash in those beds in April.

In June after attending a permaculture workshop at Westminister Presbyterian Church, a group from ReNac in Nacogdoches, TX decide to create a permaculture garden as one project for the organization. One members voiced that she had started a Hugelkultur, one form of permaculture, and wanted to expand the area with a "lasagna" bed. The group asked to help develop the area and document the process.
