Next week, Tractor Pull!!

Phillip took a lil' video on his iphone a few weeks back. I thought I would post it to show everyone that we are really farming, and because it shows off tom's antique tractor.

The attachment I am using is a spreader. We took spent mushroom columns and but them in the trailer. There are large weights at the end that spin like a drunken college girl's vision after to many daiquiris. The spinning action breaks up the columns and spits them out the back. It's pretty impressive to see from the other end of things.

Enjoy below!


The straw helps keep weeds out, retains moisture and provides nutrients. The bed that we covered is where we planted our garlic.

This past Monday, we planted our 1st attempt at cover crops. George bought white clover seeds and we plowed then sowed the lil' buggers.

This might be all we are able to do for this year, but I hope we can still plant some more kale to carry us through our fall menu and into winter.

George, Phil, and I are looking forward to sitting down this week and hashing out we want to grow for for next year. If anyone has any cool ideas, let us know. We would also love advice from anyone that has any.
