So... this is the plot of lawn my parents gave me to try the garden on. It receives good afternoon sun and reflection off the side of the shed. This seems to make the grass grow especially well in this area.
I just covered it over with straw from the edge of the woods; before that, it was just lawn. The wooded area is a perpetual source of nutrients for the garden. Fresh green grass, bits of sticks and rotten logs are good additions to any natural garden. I added a line of stones just to keep the straw from blowing off into the neighbor's yard (they are all for the idea of trying a garden - more lawn is just wasted space).
