Weekend chores

The farmhouse is pretty as a picture

This past weekend was full of things to do at the farm.  We caught another gopher, took out the garbage, and watered foundation plants.  We also mowed an area in the west field to be used as overflow parking for an event at the end of August, and we cleaned up some fence lines.  We irrigated the northern one-third of Ferguson field after repairing the poly pipe distribution line and replacing a missing gasket.

Our tally of irrigating so far:

  • July 25, 2013: 1.0 hour in Ferguson field
  • July 27, 2013: 1.0 hour in Ferguson field
  • July 28, 2013: 5.5 hours in Ferguson field
