I stole a bunch and handed them out. Lots of people getting on with gardening, but it's not easy. The organic mater you take has to be replaced. Humanure is the easieest way, but not popular, takes 3-4 years before you can even use it.

Anything natural, so if you avoid processed food, a lot of kitchen waste, rinds and anything non-edible but biodegradable is good.

If it's still too cold to plant outside, you can plant inside and then plant them out when the danger of a late frost is past - often better anyway, since they're pretty vulnerable when small.

In Michigan? This time of year?

In other news, the Great Lakes just reopened to commercial shipping. Until now, it was ice bound, a poo time for spring planting.
