 compost every year to get some water-retaining organic material into your
 soil.  I think that you will find this most helpful over the long haul, in

Hi Jim,

You said "good amount". I am adding about 1-2 inches of leaves, leaf mold,
wood chips, and/or compost a year.  Problably closer to the 1 inch mark once
it packs down and because there never seems to be enough material to go
around.  Do you think this amount will be much help or should I start looking
for more material?
