Tips for a way to either plant through, or semi-automate the clearing of, wood chips? Planning a pretty large market garden for future, and I can get truckloads of wood chips almost free (much cheaper than straw or plastic) so they'd be my preference for mulching.
Problem is, I don't want to go along with a rake pulling aside 8 inches of mulch every time I sow seed or transplant.
In straw or similar, I could probably put some kind of hand-pushed row cleaner that would work fine, but I doubt it'd be as effective here. Something on that level would be good though--think wheelhoe, not hand trowel. Tips, resources, insults? Thanks
