Vintage Snapshots – Two Years Ago – Feb 2016

Time flies…here’s Bent Pine Farm two years ago.    We’re predicting that it will take another two years at least to finish the infrastructure for the Fairhaven Community School Project.   Keep you posted.

The Garden isn’t looking quite as good in 2018.   The Winter 2017-18 was so cold that we lost much of what we put in.   Last year the dollar weed took over and we fought it for at least a month with the cultivator and white vinegar.   Not sure who won, since it only takes one tiny root to re-infest the whole garden again.   

Actually the clover won this round.   Now we’re back again with the cultivator and white vinegar.   Can’t feed these roots to the animals, because we use the livestock manure to fertilize.   Thinking of trying “weed soup”.   I’m sure there is such a thing…ever heard of it?

Happy Homesteading,
T.
