BIGGEST FARM PROJECT - DONE!!!

6 years in the making - but now got the final 120 trees planted in the yard including the new “Maple Ridge” tree rows this past weekend.

SO MUCH WORK - now just have to sit back and wait for spring to see if they all take AND BUD out next year. SO EXCITED…

The highlighted in yellow section is GONE and been replaced with three rows of Maple trees (Maple Ridge).

First row - 55 Hot Wing Maples
Second row - 28 Autumn Blaze Maples
Third row - 28 Silver Cloud Maples.

The highlighted in green section is now four triangles.

First triangle - 3 Royal Frost Birch (bookend 1)
Second triangle - 3 Dakota Pinnacle Birch
Third triangle - 1 Bur Oak (the boss)
- 1 Ohio Buckeye
- 1 Black Hawk Mountain Ash
Fourth triangle - 3 Royal Frost Birch (bookend 2)

All the trees were planted with our not so secret dirt recipe of Coop Dirt and #4 Dirt - just the best combo.

I also took some videos of each step we do when planting trees here at the farm and will get those ready for next spring - stay tuned.

Can’t thank SHANNY, G & DJ enough for ALL the help with this HUGE project.

FALL TIME -
EQUALS -
END OF SEASON TREE -

BEAUTY OF A WEEKEND =
ONE OF THE TREE ROWS ALL CLEANED UP
AND WATERED…

New west trees at the Farm are all cleaned up and watered. With MILWAUKEE battery powered tools for the WIN (all of which are available at Our friends at Prairie Sky Coop Home Centre)!!!

First step - whipper snip w**ds and grass down (so they don’t get caught and mixed up in the tiller)

Use the blower to get all the debris out of the way.

Then grab the little pruner and trim ALL the lower branches and any wonky growth - pruning is important at these stages for lots of reasons.

Then get the little tiller to w**d around the trees - tiller works at two speeds so when close to trees can slow it down - so works great. Also this tiller can be exchanged with so many other attachments - TOTAL GAME CHANGER.

Then rake up a brand new water well.

Water them all. Again - good deep waters are the way to go with trees. All the roots need a good drink including the deeper roots - ESPECIALLY in the fall before our long cold winters.

I love the look of these tree rows once they are all cleaned up.

Now on to the next project - thankful weather is cooperating!!!

Have a great week Peeps!!!

PS - Laura is my Milwaukee battery tool go to at the Coop - thanks Missy (Shanny hates you for teasing me and making me buy all these toys lol).

MEH TO FALL AND YOUR COLOURS…Oh and this tractor we got from Gary Boutin….  Absolutely my new favorite thing in the yard...
