Proposal: Hugelkultur

Garden proposal, Lupin Gardens, Lupin Lodge

Hugelkultur is a method of enriching soil and increasing growable surface area by burying wood and decaying matter.

This is a proposal for arranging and burying onsite wood to make terraces to grow food and desirable plants.

I recommend consulting with the nearby resident for preferences on terrace shape and thistle handling.

Biochar

activated charcoal, available biochar, biochar, Fire Pit, GreenMe utility, Lupin Lodge

Here is biochar: activated charcoal available to be added to compost.

Biochar is often produced from burning wood in fire pits.

By adding “#biochar” to any ComPost, such as a compost pile, compost bin, composting toilet, compost deposit, or commit, you increase the soil’s capacity to support biodiversity.

Source

Primarily wood cut on property, mostly oak

could also contain some Manzanita, bay, sequoia

Creation Conditions

burned in the Lupin Lodge fire pit by the volleyball court; Could consist of meter wide ring of cement blocks on sand; high ash content

Access Instructions

Char is dumped in a pile by the bamboo-lined fence

Biochar must be inoculated with wet biomass to be effective.

Share how you inoculate this biochar:
