My growing area ...6000 sq ft on the left for kins and 1600 sq ft on the right for veggies. Been growing on the right for twenty years. Tilled and started on the left last year and added to it this year. Final till in about 2 weeks. My AG Garden had fish carcasses dumped on it all winter down the center where the kins will be planted. Some were fermented for about a month and buried before the initial tilling. Approximately 50 gallons of carcasses total. One deer carcass staked out in the fall was picked clean and mostly gone except for the backbone and head. Nice eight pointer which will look good as a skull mount. Ravens were there most of the winter. Droppings should be beneficial. The apple tree in the left rear is a pain. Had to trim some branches to keep apples out of the garden. Deer have already started nipping the buds. Fence going back up after tilling.
