This is what building the soil and planting perennials over multiple years can lead to:
It’s beautiful. Mature trees and grapes, rich soil, lots of abundance. Nice work, James.

very interesting !
also your videos. I am growing a one hectare (2.5 acres, I think) forest. Half a wild forest and half a food forest. A lot of biodiversity and animals are coming and look happy.
You are invited when you come to Europe !
I live in USDA zone 7b and I am trying to turn my backyard into a garden on a budget that only allows hand tools. Currently I am using a shovel to dig out the grass. This leaves behind a trench. I use a hand cultivator to loosen the soil in the trench. Then I add some kitchen scraps and then cover it with the grass clods I just removed. I place the grass clods leaf-side-down and root side up. I am hoping the clods and kitchen scraps will decompose together and leave me rich soil for spring. What is your opinion of this technique and are there any tips you can give for my situation? Thanks.
Sounds great to me. I cannot see a downside. I have done similar things.
