Our highly unscientific till vs. no-till poll results are in:
17% of you said you till
43% of you don’t till
23% of you double-dig
15% are undecided
Looks like most of you fall into the permacultural no-till camp.
For more information on no-till ag see the no-till section of our publisher Rodale’s website.
Meanwhile, we’re on our book tour of Northern California and the Pacific Northwest. Check out our schedule here and we hope to meet all you all!

This makes sense to me!
Just started no-till this year after a bumper crop of field peas over the winter convinced me that the soil is already plenty supple. Plan to test till vs. no-till beds this fall (sending soil samples away to the lab). Stay tuned!
