Love the garden and orchard Mercola! For this summer I will be buying my produce from local farms. Next year I will be taking the next step and will grow my own LARGE garden! I can't wait!

do you still get the grounded benefits if you're standing on sand on a beach?

yes, matt357, shoes are bad for the arches and every other part of your feet, including your skin. They also cause muscle atrophy in the calf muscle and the muscles in your feet. They cause excessive stress on your knees and hips because they force you to walk in an unnatural way.

plants could be MUCH closer together for a biointensive approach. and yes mulch mulch, mulch.

For the home garden/orchard there are easy improvements to be made:
1- Grass around the fruit trees= mistake!
The strong grass root system compete and weaken the fruit trees.
2- Veggies need a mulch cover made of dry vegetation. Uproot the weeds and leave them on the soil surface: an easy way. Advanced gardeners will leave part of the weeds.
Great example of home garden: the Dervaes family:
