You know when you start a big tidying project, with great intentions, and then get overwhelmed by the mess you create?

Yeah.

That.

@niamhgarvey @actuallyautistic yeah, but...gardening is hard! I was just out planting with no real plan.

@mtechman @actuallyautistic @niamhgarvey That’s the best kind of gardening.

@bhawthorne @mtechman @actuallyautistic my garden is my happy place. But not when I turn it into a kip 😂

@niamhgarvey @mtechman @actuallyautistic I have recently learned to break every project down into ever smaller parts. Right now, I have dozens of small piles of pruned branches around my garden, waiting to be carried to the hugel once I have confluences of nice weather, time, and energy. I can usually only handle a couple of piles at a time, but that way, I keep my kips small and organized.
