I've just read a few things on the net about this method but does anyone on here do it?

if you do how did you get started off?
what things do you use?
and does it work well?
do you dig just the same as you would if you were not doing it then start the mulching process?
(does that last question make sense lol?)

thanks in advance.

Ruth Stout, the article states, worked au naturale in her garden!
I doubt her method will catch on here!

It's not so different from my method with inches of grass cuttings or dead leaves.
