Hügelkultur

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Completed Hügelkultur bed prior to being covered with soil.
Hügelkultur is a composting process employing raised planting beds constructed on top of decaying wood debris and other compostable biomass plant materials. The process helps to improve soil fertility, water retention, and soil warming, thus benefiting plants grown on or near such mounds.[1][2]
