I have a vegetable garden in Midwestern Northern Illinois. It is organic, has raised beds, and I am using double digging techniques (actually bastard trenching), along with French Intensive concepts. I broke ground in December of 2009, and I hope that if you are a beginning or struggling gardener that this blog will be an encouragement to you.
Break up the bottom of the trench with a potato fork. Then leave this layer undisturbed. Try not to step on top of your bed because you will compact it. You can place a piece of plywood to step on, on top of your bed.
