No dig gardening or a raised garden bed, consists of layering organic materials on top of the soil to create a nutrient rich environment for your plants, in this case, vegetables.
A raised garden bed means that it doesn't matter what sort of soil you currently have. Simply layer materials over the top of your surface and start growing!
Gardening is sublime. It's where you can enjoy the wonder of nature close up and personally... no matter where you are. Don't let the current
quality of your soil hold you back.
You will need a sunny space and a flat surface. Beyond that, just add a few ingredients and you're on your way.
