I keep seeing commercials for Gross Pointe Garden Society it made me wonder.
Corpses are pretty good fertilizer. I think there are some groups who will bury a goat carcass under their veg beds? But yeah it works super well.
The story of the pilgrims and the first Thanksgiving included them burying fish with the crops to help them grow better.
Yep! Now we have ready made fish meal, I use it in my cannabis bed.
Now that sounds like a comfortable bed.
80s, rather than 90s, and music, rather than film but R.E.M. have a song called The Flowers of Guatemala which mentions this practice, in relation to the military dictatorship there making 40,000 people disappear and putting flowerbeds in on top (or possibly just wild flowers growing there, I’m not sure)
Cheery stuff!
