Restoring the Ground

I go over some of the mistakes that I made last year. Nothing that was detrimental, but definitely some things that I didn't do correctly. We had a tragedy in the family that changed my thought process, but in the midst, a weekend of work changed the way I do things on the property. It also changed a lot of the way that I look at things, and how important they actually are.

Kiss your wife, kids, and family. Tell them that you love them and let them know how much they mean to you because one day, you may not be able to. Live life without regrets, and surely don't live it with pride or fear!

In this episode I talk about how and what are some things that I have done to help create old field habitat in my 5 year old cutover. I discuss when the work should be done to get the results that you are striving for and what methods to use. I also talk about the native and invasive plants that are showing up on my place in the areas that I have completed work.

In this episode I reference an article by Dr Craig Harper and John Grouchy about Old Field Habitat. I break down their article talking about the 3 components of an Old Field: Forms, Grasses, and Shrubs/Brambles. I talk about the varieties of these and their benefits from nutrition.

I talk about the work that I did in 2022 to create Old Field in 2022 on my property. I made some mistakes by choosing a few of the locations that I chose, but I also learned a few things about the soils and the vegetation that grew back after the work was done.
