Yes the sand has little nutrients, but we love how easy it is to work in. Did you say you have 6 gardens? that is a lot! We have done the Back to Eden garden method, where you basically layer several things to get a nutrient rich soil after time. This has worked wonders for me. You are so right...

Thanks, I thought I did that, but will check again. Looking forward to chatting with others.

I am a busy lady tending to my three gardens, caring for our meat rabbits and chickens. I also am a graphics designer so work from home part time. We live in the woods on 30 acres. We have carved out our place by hand over the past 6 years and love country life, this land was never lived on...
