- Learn how to lasagna garden, or how to turn a lawn into garden bed USING WASTE!
Lasagna gardening is a compost-in-place method that simultaneously improves soil, and creates a new garden bed without digging, tilling, spraying, or using any large equipment… AND it uses compostable waste materials you likely already have on hand.
Surprisingly, there is also some lasagna gardening controversy… are great strategies for smothering weeds and lawns to create either a mulched area or a new garden bed.
You can adapt these methods for large areas or small areas, to add a little or a lot nutrients to the soil, or to mostly just prevent weeds. You can even use them to repair existing garden beds that have been taken over by weeds. Also, these methods all create an opportunity to turn organic waste materials into healthy soil, all onsite, and pretty easily.
I’ll share information and considerations along the way so you can decide what is best for you and your yard. Because I think that’s the biggest problem: not every gardening method applies in every context. I’m here to share resources, but it’s ultimately up to you to decide what is best for you and your yard.

This is the exact kind of channel I've been looking for! I actually feel confident to start planning my garden
Wow, what a great channel! Love it. So much great info!
This is so helpful, Eve. I've just realised I'm already (and inadvertently) lasagne gardening in the 'dump' pile in the back corner of my back yard! 😆 Win.
This was super helpful, thank you! One question, is it possible to do lasagna gardening on a slope? Any tips for working on a slight or moderate sloped area?
Hi Krista! Yes, though materials will need to be stabilized in some way on steep slopes. Perhaps some hugelkultur (rotting wood) could be incorporated to help with this? Using branches or logs with limbs that are unlikely to roll, either under the lasagna garden bed periodically, or perhaps as borders for beds (maybe even digging them into a soil a bit) could help prevent other materials from washing downhill?
Thanks for this!
You’re welcome! Glad if I can help!
Well done, thanks Eve!
I love your videos! Thank yous o much!
Thank you for another great video! Have a question on the “greens”. Some CZcams sources say we should avoid citrus peel. Some are against onions. They claim worms don’t like them. I couldn’t find any scientific sources on that. What is your experience?
Great question! I used to work for my local Master Composter/Recycler program, and that was a common question. The short answer: myth! Citrus and onions make great compost. It is true that worms don’t love citrus, but worms are only one of hundreds of organisms that make decomposition happen. The microscopic decomposers do most of the heavy lifting before the worms even start. In a lasagna gardening bed or a compost pile, there is plenty of diversity. The creatures that don’t like citrus can avoid it, and do their best work elsewhere.
In an enclosed worm bin/vermicomposting system, you can even put in some citrus (as even so, worms are not the only decomposers present) but you don’t want to overwhelm the system by putting in a ton. But outside, nothing to worry about.
How deep should the bed be for one layer of recipe 4?
Recently found your channel. Great, helpful content.
Side note: you look alot like Cupcake Jemma
This is so helpful! I am going to be enlarging the flower bed in my front yard and eliminating some of my lawn. Would the existing sod be enough green if all I have to layer is mulched leaves? Thanks!
I’m new to gardening . I have a small space and want to add lots of flowers, some shrubs and maybe a tree with just a small path for walking . Would I have to do this in the spaces before I plant? I live in zone 6a should I do it now and plant in the spring? I’m so confused.
How about using pine needles to smother?
Also, lasagna layering seems to be cold composting with the greens and browns, and not thick enough for hot composting in order to kill seeds. If you’re using grass clippings with seeds in them, would you worry about them germinating?
