What a productive weekend we just had!! We successfully cut & baled alfalfa, mulched pile after pile of dead trees, hauled mulch (bucket by bucket) to the newly weeded rows in the garden, mulched our fruit orchard, planted seeds, planted 13 blueberry bushes, erected a new (to us) trampoline and burned the giant tree trunks that wouldn't fit in the mulcher.
The results?
Over 400 bales of fantastic alfalfa. More than we need, but we can sell it to area farmers. Square bales are hard to find and we small acerage farmers prefer them because we don't need equipment to move them around.....just teenage boys.
Beautiful rows. Too bad my garden is WAY bigger than these pictures show. We had to return the mulcher on Monday morning so we could only get about 1/3 of the garden done. What is done is beautiful.
A shout of thanks to my hard working family...those shown and those with enough sense to not be shown.
What can I say.....FREE LABOR!!!
