RE: PLANTING IN RUTH STOUT INSPIRED GARDEN BEDS
Just make sure to keep the hay on top of the soil and don't mix it in. Mixing it in could lock up some of the nitrogen in the soil while breaking down the hay.

I really appreciated your post. It made me consider my approach to watering the beds -- got me thinking. Thanks again.
Thanks. I'll check it out.
It makes sense once you look in nature. When you're walking through a forest and there's thousands of plants growing amongst each other and no one watering them how do they do it? A thick layer of mulch that they drop every year in the fall holds the moisture and doesn't let it Escape.
