The Winter Garden

Winter care of garden???????

21 years ago

I need your direction to a source to advise me how to care for a garden where there is a layer of leaves which I will cover with a tarpaulin with the hopes that they will disintegrate during the winter before being roto-tilled into the garden next spring.

this might be a better question in the soil and mulch forum.
