Last night I went out to water all the plants and trees on the farm and to continue clearing out the fence line for our grapes. There is progress all around! The growing cleared area along the fence will soon house our established grape vines which will use the existing fence as a trellis for now. We have more clearing to do before its completely ready to put down cardboard/paper and soil for the planting bed. We’re thinking about planting sweet potatoes under the grapes as a living mulch also. Most of the trees in the top field are leafing out and growing. I trimmed a circle around each one so that we could find them more easily. Eventually there will be a nice line of peach and mulberry trees along with some other thus far undetermined trees. Enjoy the pictures!
Ripe Currants! First fruits from the farm.
Our whopping 2 tomato plants are looking healthy

The grapes will go along this fence eventually

The middle field
Looking down from the middle field to the garden spot. Gives a perspective on just how much more we have to do...
Looking to the right from the same spot as the last picture. This is the north half of the lower field.
