  • Vlog.10 Ferment Farm pathways.

New & old using wood chips, they make better pathways than leaves or sand.

Notes:

 * We’re spreading chips over pathways made of sand. Pathways that turned into
   clay moats and grew weeds and had to be filled. Lesson here is always have
   your pathways HIGHER than your garden beds. (Water travels downhill)
 * Farm plots are still available! $125/yr, just under 20x80 ft.

  • Vlog 4. Late apple tree pruning & grape grafting of a 100(?) yr old Concord
grape tree.

For the grape grafting: Fingers crossed. Not sure how well the splicing tape
will work.

  • Ferment Farm Fall addition Success!! About 150 big wet bags of chopped up leafs
n grass clippings mixed deeply into dryish & mucky Glenmore clay. And pathways
measured n dug. And putting back into the Earth (little crazy bean break).

Pathways are better ABOVE the beds… water flows downhill. BUT i can fill
trenches w leafs, create an organic layer for mycelium network to connect under
pathways. Sand or more organics (straw) can be added once leaf pathways break
down.

  • Ferment Farm October end. Watering the winter crops n prepping the new land
acquisition: Weeding alfalfa & mint, rolling up the carpet, and how an elephant
can have sex with a mouse.
