Preparing soil in preparation for permaculture garden

Preparing soil in preparation for permaculture garden

I have a large tree in our backyard that is sick and will need to be removed in the next 2 years. A bit sad it has to come down because we have lots of memories with it, but I’m also excited to use the new sunlight to start a food forest in backyard.

I’m ready to kill the lawn now and start improving my very tough clay soil over the next year. I understand good soil is a constant practice, and won’t be perfect in first year.

What is the best way to generate decent soil in about a year? The tree suffered from wetwood, should I be concerned about infection? Is the best way to improve soil sheet mulch? Wood chips? Aeration? Any advice will be appreciated.

Looking to improve about 1500 square feed of hard earth.
