🍄 A Little Soil Magic at The Training Spot 🌱

We had a mushroom friend pop up under our sign this week — always a good sign when you’re building soil the right way.

Inside this planter, we placed logs and woody material at the bottom before adding soil. This hugelkultur-style approach helps retain moisture, slowly breaks down to feed the soil, and reduces the need for frequent watering over time.

The mushroom is part of that process — fungi help decompose the wood and move nutrients through the soil, supporting healthier plants from the ground up.

We love seeing these small signs that a living soil system is doing exactly what it’s supposed to do.

A simple cleanup and fresh mulch can really change how a space feels. We gave this front yard a reset — cleaned up the beds, refreshed the mulch, and got it ready for spring.
If your yard could use something similar, we’re happy to chat and offer free estimates. You can check out more of our work here:
