Joey and Holly welcome their guest Author of The Straw Bale Garden complete book https://strawbalegardens.com/

Joel Karsten is the inventor of the Straw Bale Garden method. He is also an author and educator. The Straw Bale Garden books have been printed in a number of languages and sold all over the world.

1.Let start with a this question Joel so we all are on the same page what is difference of hay and straw.
2 A question we get a lot is are where can I find organic straw at? Because growing up on a wheat farm we never sprayed our wheat but now I guess it is a thing.
3.In your book you cover a subject called conditioning the bale this is what you have to do before you can plant in it, explain what the that means
4.When straw bale gardening is done correctly – do we have to worry about bugs and disease like we would if growing in soil?
5.People are often worried about mice and bees using the bale as a home is should they be concerned about this ?
6.Where can we find the book? More about the method? Etc….
