Mulching is a long process.....

This is the area destined to be mulched and planted. The foreground will have brick paths and be laid out as beds for herbs, perennial vegetables, fruit trees and bushes etc.
.
The far end will be planted out with comfrey for harvesting as green manure, compost material etc.
.
The mulching is on-going as I can lay my hands on cardboard boxes and cheap reclaimed bricks, along with some corrugated iron scavenged from elsewhere and just there as a temporary measure.

As time goes on I will plant directly through the cardboard and then just let it rot into the earth under other more conventional mulches/compost etc.
But it's a slow process.......
