Well, my bonus year trees are all planted...

I didn’t really need to plant any this year, but with all the goings on, I decided to put more trees in this year and to put them all along the road side of the property... By fall, they will be 7-8’ tall and make a nice screen.

Since I use a 3000+ year old practice of coppice harvesting, I will not have to replant for at least 20 years.

It is amazing how some of the oldest practices are actually some of the best for production and management.
