I grew up in the South. Back then I was more into wandering around the forests & coastal areas.

Our farm is coming along. Spent time this past weekend cleaning up an old burn pile and taking the stuff that should not have been in there to the dump. We scraped together funds to get a decent, used PTO powered chipper/shredder to deal with the overabundant course, woody debris. Tons of doug fir branches from limbing up trees, alder saplings that were trying to grow up through the fence and selected areas of the forest floor that we would like to open up, just to start.

We picked up 10 pounds of grass fed ground beef from a neighbor only 1/2 mile down the road. I saw our resident owl again and the garter snakes and northern alligator lizards started using the rock pile I made for them in a spot that gets morning sun.
