Mulch can help a garden so much, but the wrong kind can create a whole new set of problems you did not plan for 🌿
🍂 I usually stick with simple options like shredded leaves, straw, arborist wood chips, or plain cardboard under mulch.
🌱 What works best for me is a light, breathable layer that holds moisture without smothering the soil.
🚫 I’m always careful with anything that heats up, mats down, or looks too processed, because that can cause trouble around roots.
🪴 Thick fresh grass clippings are one I avoid using in a heavy layer since they can get slimy fast.
🍅 Around vegetables, I like clean straw or chopped leaves because they are easy to work with and break down nicely over time.

Students are struggling to access food and essential supplies at this time. AHA is supporting the Asian Student Society at Minneapolis College of Art and Design (MCAD) to get food and essential supplies directly to MCAD students who need them. Our goal is to raise funds to directly purchase items for students. Please share and support.

There simply are no words. Sending our deepest condolences to Alex's family. Our community will continue to rise. We must. We refuse to accept this violence or any kind of violence. May he be remembered for his courage and kindness. For saving lives. For believing in something better than hating people. Sharing the powerful words of Alexs parents. We must keep this truth alive. We must continue to build a world free of violence.
