My Grandma found this "dirt" colored carpet that she placed in her garden making it easier for her to maneuver. It also serves as a weed barrier; nothing is coming through that puppy!

Here are some other ideas for garden pathways:
My friend Hanni at Sweetbeangardening.blogspot.com laid down cardboard and hay for her pathway. (This is a great post if you get a chance to read it!)
