My wife has been wanting me to clear out an old cattle working pen for her new garden spot. Just can't keep up with everything and let the trees grow up around it when I changed my pens around.
I've got most of it cleared and mowed. I'm about to drag all the coastal off of it and get ready to till it. I bit the bullet when I bought my tractor and added a JD 673 tiller to the bill. Sort of a gift for my wife. I'll be using it soon.
This should make a good garden spot as far as the soil goes, but my wife won't let me take out the trees on the West Side, at least this year. We have a pipeline coming through in 2011 and the trees will block the view of it. Watching pipelines go in, even from a 1/4 mile away is a depressing experience.
She insists the garden will be okay with no evening Sun. I guess we'll see. I expect that this time next year I'll be taking THAT row of trees out.
I'll post pictures once I get it looking better.
