A simple way to turn grass into vegetables. Deep mulching reduces weeds and increases soil nutrients. A perfect system for temperate climates.

It starts by growing tall grass in an area that is easy to cut with a scythe. Once the grass is waist-high, you cut it down before it goes to seed. Rake up the long grass, and you have instant mulch for your garden.

This method builds soil quickly while reducing weeds. Here's an example of how much grass I can get from cutting a 500 square foot area, https://youtu.be/A0wIZUx5erA

You can even grass-feed orchards, chickens, and other growing spaces. Long cut grass makes an excellent mulch. Your landscaping can become even more environmentally friendly, https://www.prosperityhomestead.org/a-grass-fed-tree-system-paradise-and-its-landscape-friendly/
