Late last October, I went out to put my garden to bed for the winter. It had been a good year. The only serious casualties were my eggplants, so stunted from invasions by tarnished plant bugs that they failed to produce. Everything else thrived, and I felt blessed. But now it was time for the final clean-up, and I began by pulling the support cages off the dead tomato plants and dissembling the four-pole teepee I had erected for my pole beans to climb. Then 1 chopped up the dead corn stalks with a hedge dipper, pulled up the now headless cabbage plants, and yanked old beets that I had failed to harvest before they got too woody. (Ah, sweet excess!) The coarsest debris went into the compost pile. Everything else stayed, including the hay mulch, which I distributed more evenly around and about. Finally, it was time for the rototiller to turn the topside mess under and replace it systematically with the black earth and reluctant worms from below, courtesy of this marvelous machine that requires nothing more of me than minor guidance and direction.
