Straw-Bale Gardening

In this episode we speak with Joel Karsten about straw-bale gardening.

He is the author of Straw Bale Gardens Complete.

We chat about:

  • Straw bale gardens as a way to grow in very wet conditions

  • Making non-straw bales out of other available organic materials

  • Trellising for straw-bale gardens

  • Making raised straw-bale gardens

  • Growing mushrooms on straw bales (spoiler alert: then you can grow veggies afterwards!)
