paths
Hello
I'm just starting to read up on no-dig from this site and it certainly appeals to me. I have a very, very, very, very(!) small allotment and at present I use trodden earth pathways or planks for getting in and out to beds as there isn't space for anything more elaborate. Can I use no-dig techniques and still have trodden earth paths? What would be best?

PS the ground is heavy clay.
Your earth paths sound fine, my paths are all simply soil which is partly covered in compost which birds kick off the beds (they have no wooden sides), and paths of bare earth are best for having less slugs.
