Very nice video. Thank you
Also one idea for you is to think about selling frozen Paw Paw pulp like ice cream. I haven’t been able to find a place around Pacific Northwest and I am sure there are tons of demand.
I have a market for it in Toronto Canada. Just need to get my trees producing enough to meet my and their demand !!
im in southern ontario i have two paw paws so far growing and ywenty seeds coming in as of today. aswell im going to start 100 chestnut seeds cheers mate love the video
Awesome !! Just got a bunch of chestnuts as well. Have them in sand and peat moss for the winter. Hopefully see some sprouts in the spring.
I'll save ya a small fortune on tree pots. We use 2L wax paper milk cartons (juice too). They are taller (14") than what you used when opened up fully but are 4"x4"(LxW) and there are robust juice/milk carton crates that fit 16 perfectly. 20 crates (20x16 trees) fit on a standard pallet when moving them around with a pallet jack or tractor forks. We do 1000s of long tap root trees annually like this. Net cost is FREE (recycle, reuse, reduce, refuse)
Yes! I have done this in the past! Here in Ontario Canada our milk comes in bags!!! LOL I used to save my cream containers but cut the cream out due to increasing waist size!! LOL
This is 100% a fantastic tip!
Hey Mike, just wanted to say thanks for your videos. I really admire the biodiversity you're practicing on your farm. That's my next goal as well - I'm in Ontario too. This year I'm planting a dozen hazelnut shrubs, 2 heartnut trees, and 2 Ohio buckeyes and 2 Korean pines. I picked those up from the good people at Golden Bough Tree farm in Marlbank, ON. They're big on biodiversity and permaculture as well. They generally do a couple of farm tours a year so they're well worth going up to see them when they do. They use a lot of comfrey all over the place as it's amazing for carbon sequestration, mulch, beneficial insects, etc. Do you use it at all? Do you plant any pollinator plants around your property to attract them as well? Keep up the good work. Thanks!
We bought this property Oct 2019, so we are building as we go !! There is comfrey growing on our land already and we will be transplanting as we grow.
We put 100+ fruit and nut trees in the ground last spring, absolutely demolished by deer..... lesson learned. Figure 25% survived. Make sure you protect those trees!! Lol. They loved the Heartnut trees ! Seemed to leave the hazel nut and Korean pine alone.
Thanks for reaching out
Mike
Do you sell the trees in the pot?
Yes i do, only as year olds.
Um, did you say Canada? The native range is the East middle of the US. Isn't your winter too harsh? Did you get a special variety?
Hey Janet.
We have Pawpaw growing in the “wild” in South Western Ontario. Where I live, Pawpaw struggle and yes I am always searching for a variety that can survive our harsh winters. But in the southern part of our province, pawpaw do very well.
Thanks for checking out our video!!
Have a fantastic Sunday
Mike
Why are you whispering? [Pro-tip: kick up your gain! My volume is maxed out on my pathetic little laptop, but even still, I should be able to hear you fine, which I can't.]
Thank you for the advice.
I really hoped for some real content but not here. Just talking while periodically putting his hand on a flower pot. Real waste of time and bandwidth. Thumbs way down!
Appreciate your feed back Bill. Have a fantastic day
