An interview with Paul Gautschi about how to grow a Back to Eden Garden. Paul Gautschi is an arborist and gardener based in Washington. Paul’s regenerative organic gardening method mimics the way the natural forest generates healthy, resilient, fertile soil. The technique is simple -- cover the soil. Then practice these growing principles: No tilling. No chemical fertilizers, herbicides, or pesticides. No matter the soil condition or climate, the results are astounding and the benefits to the health of the soil, humankind, and the environment are unprecedented. Learn more: www.backtoedenfilm.com

I love and respect this man's wisdom and faith so much that I added about a foot of woodchips for almost a square acre sized area. This was about 2 years ago. I do agree with him on all of the benefits however, I would probably push back on the "you'll see a difference immediately" because we couldn't plant in the area for about a year because you obviously can't plant directly into the woodchips. When we pull the woodchips back, there's usually about 2 inches of water sitting on top of the hardpan clay so all of the things we tried to grow just died from drowning (my thought, I don't know actually know for sure). But I do know that plants don't like having inches of water surrounding them. I live in NC where we get storms that'll dump 2-4 inches in a day so I just don't know what to do. I would've thought the woodchips would allow it to slowly percolate down but it seems that with such a heavy rainfall it's just impossible. Is that answer to just add more woodchips? The area that I'm talking about doesn't have very good drainage but I thought adding a foot of woodchips would over time break down and be much better at holding moisture. I think the woodchips are really good in dry places that don't get a lot of rain, but what should I do when there's SO MUCH rain? Paul gets 16inches of rain a year where we've gotten 16inches in the last 2 months....

I don't have access to wood chips, but I do have access to fall leaves. Plus, I'll keep about 6 big bags of fall leaves to use in late May or early June, in those problem areas. I had a walk area last year which was getting a little weedy. I covered the grass in newspapers, placed a bag of leaves on top; no more johnson grass.

I grow all my plants in pots and portable raised beds because I rent. I have a bin full of broken down wood chips soil. I have fungus growing in it, and coming up in my pots. I wish I had seen this method many years ago when the only soil I had to grow stuff was pure clay. All the best to you Paul and your family, I hope one day to visit your place with my family.

I have been doing Paul's methods for over 14 years here in Missouri. Compost works a lot better than the free wood chips from tree companies. However, I use both. I normally let the free chips sit for several months in a pile before I apply them. My garden is now over 6000 square feet and I have added over 15 fruit trees in a new area. I love the way this method works.

I have been a landscaper and arborist and now finally have the opportunity to be on land where I can build permaculture gardens. Bark mulch has always been something I loved to use and wood chips have always been available. Knowing they would always break down into soil has always been a positive for me. wood chips have always been added to my compost. Now we are using chips and leaves to start all of our new gardens and even for weed and grass control under fences and trees. Once aged we will grow flowers and more there and still not have to use grass trimmers very much. Paul inspired me to add Back To Eden to our new permaculture farm and we are happy to do so.

I purchased some bare land a few years back and been wanting to do BTE gardening in my spare time. I have a couple issues tho. 1: my property was farmed and according to the previous owners the guy they bought it from never farmed it but they kept it tilled. 2: it’s not economical to import wood chips. Can I substitute it for straw? I’m on the prairies so I have access to tons. I find that my soil is 100% silt. Got about 10-12” good Black silt. My shelter belt I planted 300 trees for the 1st row I have to replace 40-70 trees per year that don’t catch. The ones from the 1st year haven’t died but they haven’t thrived either. Wood chipped those. I planted some fruit trees beside the garden and 1.5 years ago I filled the whole area with mulch and added a few more perennials to turn that area into a permaculture garden. Love the idea of working with Mother Nature. Will cover several acres with permaculture if I had the resources Been adding bedding from the chicken coop to every where but it does not decompose like ordinary compost. Anyone care to give me advice if I’m doing something right.. or wrong? I also don’t own a tiller and I find the weeds in the 5000 sq ft garden got out of hand on us. Came up as fast as we could pull them out

Thanks to Paul's videos, I use a lot of woodchip in my garden. The areas that are woodchipped are, by far, the best. Weeds pull more easily and there are far fewer of them. the ground doesn't need nearly as much water, especially when we get a lot of rain anyway. I've not done so much gardening for a few years (for good reason), but I'm not planning to get it all licked back into shape again this year to go full throttle next year. It's great to see him looking so well and relaxed. I wonder how he feels about our Governments (I'm in the UK) forcing everyone to register their birds (even if they only have one)? I believe a cull is being planned, especially after seeing the Pale (Green) Horse in the Paris 2024 Olympics Opening Ceremony - famine is on its way to billions. War with Russia is on the cards too. It's time.

In the UK, Charles Dowding fully composts his organic matter / wood chips etc. first because over here, the vast amount of slugs eat everything if you put arborist wood chips straight down (they live in it too). But fully composted wood chips? They don't touch the stuff. They can't eat it, and it practically acts as a barrier for them. Tried both ways myself 😁 Night and day difference. Can't speak for the US, but I imagine slug population / moisture levels are what make the difference if you can run straight arborist chips or you have to fully compost them in a heap first.
