Condition your soil by tilling and mixing in organic material...like organic compost. You can buy it at any garden center. Then trench a straight row by staking two stakes at each end and run a string between. Add some potting soil to the space where you plant your plants. This keeps the soil soft and cozy for young roots. 
Add objects like pinwheels or flags that will move in the wind to discourage animals and birds from eating your new plants. Conditioned and planted...ready for grass clippings
Place grass clippings around each plant and down the rows to prevent weeds. Fertilize/water the plants in. I like to use organic, liquid fish and seaweed fertilizer. New plants may need to be watered everyday. Water in the early morning, before it gets hot and/or in the evening when it is cooling down.
