Life is short and every single day matters. At least that's the way we see things. I could have lost my leg and much worse with my severe blood clotting episodes so I am grateful that I stll CAN do some work. Thanks!
yes but its a labor of love! We so enjoy being in the outdoors, in the woods and making positive changes for the land and wildlife! I don't think I'd have it any other way. Thanks
More good progress, great to get it planted while it's still dry, or it could get pretty muddy once the loose soil gets wet. Neat plan to have the latest plot hidden from the trail.
I was wondering if you could leave a few strategically placed mature trees in the plots, but I didn't say anything. I thought it might be a big no no, but I find it esthetically pleasing. You might need a shady spot to eat a sammich or something!
Well its a grey area.. When he inpects we'll find out. He said a few will be ok so we'll see. But I think it will be good this way. And I agree with you, love some big trees in my plots! But they do drain water!! lol
I hope so too! So far we've had 2 days of rain here, like literally 5 miles away but not a lick hit us!! Ugghhh.. But at some point it has to happen!! Thanks
Looking Fantastic! I left a few trees in my plot, I took them out after 3 years. you will always be picking limbs up, kind of a pain to plant around ,and the crops around the trees suffer.
Well I have a ripper if I need it next year. But there was plenty of loose dirt to grow a nice stand of wheat, and maybe even some brassicas yet depending on the weather. But this was a huge success, now we just need some rain!! Thanks
Because I like to not have the drag on when trying to get a good seed dispersal, and sometimes the ATV or UTV will bog down a little on a turn or uphill which would affect the seeding rate. Just the way I like to get uniform seeding.
no doubt. But I will be making large watering ponds next to each one with the backup up plan of being able to water the plots during a drought-good idea!
You guys are getting so much done in lightning speed. The place looks great.

Very cool hope to see them growing soon ! Gotta have some roots in the ground ! It’s going to be a full time job just keeping them maintained!

Thank you. The big rain missed us so far!! Darn! But eventually we'll get some rain on them!

Interesting video 👍 the cleared fields look really good 👌 hopefully you get some rain kick start the germination 👍

getting it done Kapper, looking good
Roger that buddy thank you! Hope all is well, fall is about here!

Looks like your tooling around on the moon in the moon buggy.
no doubt! But I don't think there was this much dust on the moon walk, lol
Planted just in time for the rain we got coming
So far the last 2 days of rain missed us!! Phil got a bunch but we are still bone dry!! Come on Mother nature! A little help here..
Will they be doing any swails on the plots or any water features?
I will be adding wildlife ponds to the plots. But since we maxed out the cost share I wasnt' going to pay to have them do them when I can do them.
You might should have had that Dozer operator use his rippers all over that new plot area for sub soiling purposes...break up the old hard pan there.

@@KapperOutdoors2.0 I'm looking forward to your videos when they begin to grow.
What do you charge for a trip up to hunt for a weekend this fall?
Why not run the drag right when you plant?

If only drilling a well was cheaper to get some irrigation going when it’s so dry.
