this year i 'm only planting in a few of our raised beds and giving most of them a rest. My chickens will get to eat the weeds, root around and dust bathe in the raised beds. next year i'll turn over the remaining weeds & their poop, etc. and then plant.

It's a really good way to appease the chickens and have them take care of the beds for you while you wait!

my chickens have already had a good start at the bugs and weed seeds in the garden...where the snow has melted at least...
