Mulch

This morning began with a delivery of stacks of The New York Times and Dallas Morning News (thanks Jenn D. and Mary R.) Our friend and Oak Cliff Community gardener, Jenni Stolarski recommended that we cover the backyard of Oil and Cotton with newspaper before laying mulch. The newspaper is biodegradable and it prevents weeds and grass from creeping up. JD's Tree Service generously donated a HUGE load of mulch. We were immediately impressed with their mention of craftsman, artist and father, George Nakashima.
