Default It's not Just Joel Salatin anymore

I chuck piles of weeds under the fruit trees and the chooks
go in and forage and scratch it around and while they're doing that
they're leaving droppings and getting rid of excess grass growth. My
garden is not a pristine, neat place but it is productive. Me and
the willing but ignorant undergardener have 2 farms to look after and
2 houses and 2 gardens so there is not a lot of time for 'neat'.


Here is a gem for the spectators (if any): do away with terminal neatness.
