Winter garden with Charles Dowding, see the results of seven years no dig

I show you first the simplicity of my approach, spreading organic matter on the surface, that's it!
All beds have undisturbed soil, simply mulched/covered once a year with compost to about 2.5cm/1in depth.
We see the current (8 month old) compost heap, which we are spreading on any soil which has not been mulched since last winter.
I show and explain compost on the flower borders which is from the outdoor toilet, 18 months old on average.

Zone 8 and temperate oceanic, lowest temperature this winter 2019-20 was -5C/23F, warmer than usual. Last frost mid May, first frost late October, summer temperatures by day 21C/70F so in many ways this is a zone 6 climate.

VEGETABLES
Plantings of salads, spinach and broad beans in the Three Strip trial area
Broccoli for spring and for now, and cauliflower
Spring onions and cabbage for spring
Brussels sprouts, celeriac, leeks.
Few weeds.
