132 - Straw Bale Gardening with Joel Karsten

I love trying new things in the garden. Every year, I get to pick something new to try! This year, I am trying straw bale gardening, but it almost didn't happen. Thankfully, I was able to connect with Joel Karsten, the pioneer of the Straw Bale Gardening method, who gave me some great tips for getting started. Today, I get to share my interview with Joel and I know you'll love it as much as I did.   SHOW NOTES:   Find Joel Karsten   Joel's book Straw Bale Gardens Complete: https://amzn.to/2wLOgLX   Joel's free club: https://strawbalegardenclub.com   You can also find him on social media by searching Joel Karsten       Dream to Garden Course Waitlist: https://journeywithjill.net/dream2garden   Raised Bed Templates: https://journeywithjill.net/shop     (*links below contain affiliate links, which means if you click through and make a purchase, we will earn a commission at no extra cost to you.)     Special thanks to our sponsor, Good Ideas, Inc.
