The best way always is God's way to grow food and plants. Hence we see recently a very few farmers here to experiment with organic strawberry farming. In nature all grows in abundance, strong and delicious - a natural way.
Here a young farmer girl experiments with organic farming, using dry straw and dried grass to protect strawberries from touching soil.
Ideal would be to have low grass or any low growing plants to cover up the soil around strawberry plants. In nature we have wild strawberry plants growing amidst healthy strong grass, thus wild strawberries are touching grass instead of naked soil.
If other plants and grass are growing too high, the highest plants can be removed by hand and used as mulching - natural fertilizer!

I'm not sure if it's to keep 'us' in...or 'them' out but on Tuesday, the BBC local radio team were surrounded by a seven foot high fence. However, I'm relieved to report that we were left with a narrow escape route.
We started broadcasting on Wednesday with reporters and presenters from BBC Radio Stoke, Coventry and Warwickshire and Manchester. Luckily they managed to find us. You can see the aerials on the top of the 'OB' van, you can't really miss them, they're 20 foot tall - 
you just can't work out how to get in to them. We also did '2-ways' for BBC Radio Wiltshire, Oxford, Lancashire, Hereford and Worcester, Sheffield, Tees, Gloucestershire and Jersey. What's an 'OB' or a '2-way'? Like many organisations the BBC is full of jargon and acronyms...I'll share the secrets with you another time. Info from:
