When my husband was deep in his #permaculture gardening phase he asked for one of these SunJoe mulching machines for his birthday. Since then, he’s largely abandoned #gardening—and who can blame him? It’s been tough! So now, I use it to break down the Mexican sunflower so that it’s easier to #compost. It’s a very sweet-smelling plant.
To me, buying a new machine didn’t seem very #permacultutre-y but now that we have it, may as well use it.
I’m going to continue posting about what I’ve learned about the limitations of practicing permaculture in an urban setting. First of all, look how much all of that plant material condenses when mulched. And as you know, the resulting amount of #compost will be even smaller…
