An overgrown bunch of Sheokes or Casurina trees on our property suddenly became next year's firewood supply already...not really suddenly! Aaron has been working solidly a bit each day for the last couple of weeks to create this masterpiece. The trees have been cut so they are now able to be coppiced in the future. As they happen to also be a nitrogen-fixing type of tree which releases a dump of nitrogen upon being pruned/trimmed, we are feeling very good about being able to maintain them now...for lots of reasons! Just a little bald along the highway at the moment.
This too, is being solved by Aaron, who is in the process of building a new enclosing fence - I'm trying to convince him that there needs to be some pretty cut-outs or something beautiful included - he likes the idea of the beautification, just not the fiddly bits when we just need a fence up now! (I think!) Here he is preparing the first posts for concreting in.
