Clay + pine needles = shitty soil. Pity they wouldn't let you live near the old sewage lagoon.

As already said: find someone in your area with similar conditions, ask them for advice. What worked great 100 ks away might be useless for you.

You might think about putting in a few raised garden beds and getting them filled with good soil. This avoids struggling with poor soil, reduces bending/ back problems, makes fencing Vs critturs easier. Aliantha's garden has some examples. There would be set up costs, though.

Or did you mean "organic"

?

you allowed to do that,

man?
