Summary: It is my opinion that if you really want a "beyond organic" garden then it behooves you to avoid tilling your soil. Besides lasagna bed gardening I don't think we've given gardeners too many options on how to plant their crops without tilling the soil to death. So today I explain the drawbacks as well as some benefits (short term) of tilling the soil. I also share 5 methods (excluding lasagna beds) that I have used in the past or am using right now to avoid tilling the soil.
