    Not everything here is aquaponics and rocket mass heaters. The property is also used for traditional farming too. This year a mixture of timothy, red clover, and oats are being planted.

    Those are Connecticut potatoes. A new crop comes out of the soil every spring. It is nice to see a farmer making it easier on his equipment. Too many farmers just left the rocks that ended up damaging their equipment.
    When building my house, my place was so bad that I had to strip off the top 2 feet and screen off everything bigger than 3". I lost a third of my volume. Luckily I was able to get truck loads of mushroom compost until the plant closed. I was just doing a yard, the guys doing fields have huge jobs.
    Farming in CT was always tough. That is why much of it was abandoned in the early 1800s because people went west for much better land. Of the area farms that were working 40 years ago, there is only about 10% of them still working. I hope that the working farms can keep going. Good Luck

    We use our rock rake for landscaping on our farm. Our concrete guy's mouth dropped when he saw how it levels the ground in one pass. It takes them hours to do a gravel pad.

    Man that's a lot of rocks. But having the right equipment cleaned the field up nicely. Well done.

    I live in rural New England, there are alot of sustenance farmers that sell veggies in front of their property on the honor system, select what you want then leave the money in the can, seems to work just fine and the prices are better than the super market...

      Rhin0Neil New England is known for her rocky soil. That and trying to wrestle with hardwood roots makes digging or making a garden a real pain in the ass.

    La idea es desincorporar las piedra o rocas del suelo cultivable, esta practica mantiene los equipos de trabajo en mejores condiciones evitando el desgaste innecesario de los mismos manteniendo un suelo de cultivo manejable con menos obstáculos (rocas o piedras).- felicito a todo productor que practique este método de trabajo en su terrenos de cultivo, las piedras o rocas sirven para rellenar huecos o empedrar caminos fangosos haciendo una cama de superficie dura que se puede ir tapando con grava mas finas mejorando las vías de abscesos donde están los cultivos -.-

    • @Bigelowbrook

      There was corn here for a few years. We have to rotate the crops every few years to before planting the timothy it has to get raked each time. Rocks are a never ending crop!

    How does someone, support their local farmer. You can't buy anything from them, because it's illegal. The stuff at the shops that does support farmers, cost a fortune. So if i did support the local farmer, i'd need someone to support me, to support them. So just wondering, how does someone support their local farmer.
