I tilled a spot for the garlic, added three loader buckets of compost, and then tilled it again. Set 171 cloves on Saturday.
The garlic patch always turns into a weed patch, so this time I spaced the rows far enough apart to run the little Craftsman tiller between them.
I took down four of the big tomato cages, and tilled/composted the spot where the garlic was planted last years. I still have quite a bit of cleanup to do, but it was too windy to burn so I moved on to other projects.
I had 25 ton of 3x6 crushed limestone delivered Friday afternoon. I got most of it placed on the pond dam before dark. Finished it up Saturday morning, and spent several hours picking up strays and rearranging.
I think I'm going to want more out there, but I'll let this settle over winter and see what it looks like come spring.
Several trees have died in the fenceline where I park the farm implements. I moved all of that stuff out into the hay field yesterday, and got a good start on dozing out the old fence.
My buddy is supposed to retrieve his truck topper this week. Soon as that thing is out of the way I can finish the dozing, and start turning those dead trees into firewood.
*APPLAUSE* Excellent work, as always.
I’m going to put up Christmas Lights on my porch, today! My BFF already has her whole house decorated outside and she’s been turning on her lights already, LOL!
The weather here has been amazing, too! Best news? I’ve finally gotten Cherry Tomatoes on my (unheated) greenhouse plants! There may be some hope of ‘Thanksgiving Tomatoes’ this year! :)
