Podcast #71 – The Trees are Planted, but We’re Not Finished


We’ve planted 84 trees this spring. After another three that are on the way, the count will be 87. Still to come: erosion control and orchard floor, trellis lines, deer fence, drip irrigation, mulch, and pruning.

Also: start of spring planting on Veg Hill, another new trail, Japanese Maple grafting party, and all about soil blocks.
