         <title>Organic mulches are made from dead plant material such as compost, leaves, bark or grass clippings. Inorganic mulches include rocks or gravel but they can also include plastic sheeting, landscape fabric and ‘rubber mulch’. Unlike organic mulches, inorganic mulches do not break down.</title>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>By not planting the exact same vegetables in the exact same spot every year, you can avoid having pests and diseases continuously build up in the soil. If you move the crop, the pest or disease has no host on which to live. Ideally, rotate a vegetable (or vegetable family) so that it grows in a particular place once out of every 3 to 4 years.</div>]]></description>

Their roots can even help unlock some nutrients in the soil, converting them to more available forms.<br><br></div>]]></description>
