Rossdale Farm | Why no till gardening?

Rossdale Farm – I have always loved growing food. The taste, the time spent outdoors, the individual quirks of each vegetable in the garden.

But for a long time in my life, I thought I hated gardening. Enter no till. It removes the labour. There is very little weeding as annual weeds are blocked from growing. Each year as the soil health improves, it increases it’s water holding capacity. This means that over time, the need for watering decreases.

What you are left with in no till gardening is simply the love of gardening. Watching your plants grow, blossom and set fruit.

And then of course, reaping the harvest and enjoying the full flavours of sunshine that only a garden can produce.
