Some Lessons from a Year of Hugelkultur

I was once that I am the master of parallel truths. And this is one: I’m quite willing to spend money while also being exceptionally frugal. It’s why I can justify buying a great big house, purely for its acreage, but can’t justify putting expensive garden structures on that acreage. And this is how we found ourselves making Hugelkultur beds in our garden this year, instead of building any sort of raised beds or other garden structures. Was this a good idea? Perhaps...?
