Default Old thread on no-dig, can't find it!

Can anyone remember that threat on mulching & the no-dig method that was "sticky" at the top of one of the forums? I can't remember who started the thread but they were member of the month, at least a year ago. I think it was 2 threads combined by the moderators.

I've been searching for this thread but can't remember enough detail to find it. I'm sure someone else will remember as it was such a good thread.

Thanks guys!

Wow yes thanks Seahorse!

That thread was so inspiring to me & my OH. Going to have a good read of it again now to check we're doing things right.

It was supersprouts thread I believe.
Supersprout based her gardening ideology on the Ruth Stout method from USA, who's techniques revolutionised gardening practices. She wrote quite a few books about it, two of which are Gardening Without Work & the No-Work Garden Book.
Funnily enough there's a couple of her books on eBay USA just now that I am 'keeping an eye on' with a view to purchasing!
It was supersprouts methods which enthused me though!
