When I get around to starting a garden, I think I'd like to try this...

Someone in my neighborhood recently mentioned to me that there exists Oklavore, a local blog about eating locally. Not only does it exist, it had this cool recent article about no-dig gardening.

While any form of gardening involves a certain amount of manual labor (which is part of its charm), no-dig gardening does eliminate one time-consuming and difficult garden task. Plus, it seems to require very little water, a definite plus in a dry climate like ours.

It's a charming post, well worth reading. Check it out.
