FARM NEWS:
tilled the 40'x50' vegetable garden, built a fence around it with stones at the bottom.
ordered all my organic seeds. Hopefully a large bounty like last year.
mowed about 2 acres for the lavender fields. Started raking all the tall weeds and grass
and digging up the 100s of yucca plants (at least it seems like it)
already hauled over 6 truck loads of weeds.
next i have to till it up and make 8 rows 300' long of 12" mounds for the lavender plants that come the end of may. we got all the ground cover and drip lines.. now just gotta get it all done
