Default Guerilla gardening with lasanga gardens

It is time to plan some lasanga guerilla gardens.

I have 3 things in my favour.

There is a railway a few hundred metres down the road with spare land
alongside it.
It is autumn so leaves are falling.
It is autumn so a bed of organic matter laid down now will rot nicely for a
mi to late spring planting.

To date I have lifted some large flat cardboard sheets and placed on them on
the spare land and covered with 3 bags of horse poop. Shortly some leave
will be added.

Come spring there should be a nice fertile patch to plant sweet corn and
pumpkin.

Good on you, Rob, for committing unprovoked acts of beauty and kindness.
