TIL that shredded newspaper is an acceptable garden mulch material (excluding inserts). Any thoughts, or has anyone tried this? I have access to a lot of newspapers from work (library) when they are tossed each month (brought home a large pile today) and own an excellent paper shredder.

I’d like to go this route instead of weedy grass clippings or seedy straw.
