INTRODUCTION
STRAW BALE GARDENING IS a simple, clean, and affordable alternative to traditional soil gardening. By decomposing straw to create your own planting material, you create an arguably perfect environment for growing vegetables and herbs – one free of weeds, pests, and contaminates that may be in your local soil, while still nutrient rich. Straw bale gardening is perfect for curious gardeners with a sunny area outdoors that they can dedicate to the craft.
We’ll look into the history of straw bale gardening, why it’s such an effective alternative, what to look for when you start purchasing materials, and how to season your straw for use. In later chapters, we’ll review some of the best crops for straw bale gardening and the most efficient ways of laying out your straw bale gardens.
This book should provide you with all the basic information you need to know to start your own straw bale garden without the unnecessary fluff. Enjoy.
