Start by picking a location that gets enough sun to grow your veggies Step 1: Air - Break open the soil - Use a broad fork or shovel to loosen soil You just want to create a little space. Step 2: Water - - Automate irrigation with a simple timer - Set it for a couple times a week but longer watering periods Consistency beats perfection. Deep watering over shallow Step 3: Food - Add Compost - Mix it in This is a fuel source for the microbes Step 4: Microbes - Add Worm Castings - This is the biological spark. No microbes = no life 🔥 It's not fancy, a magic bean, hard, or complicated. We can make it hard but why.

I have black-eyed susans, snapdragons, marigolds and allysum that either reseed themselves or come back every year. What pollinator flowers come back for you year after year? https://www.tomsguide.com/home/outdoors/9-perennial-flowers-to-plant-in-april-for-blooms-year-after-year
