Big Day of Bed Prep at our 'Biggie' Farm Site

Today we had an awesome time prepping beds over at what we've nicknamed our 'Biggie' farm site.
This site is on land owned by Scott and Robin Olsen. They are great people and really excited to have their land being used for agriculture. They just bought a fantastic New Holland tractor and have a 26 year old Yanmar, too. We worked with them, they both drove the tractors, loaded up with Nature's Needs and then Neil, Mishelle, Steve and I raked it out into piles and then evenly over the beds. It was so empowering to have 6 of us all working in sync. We spread dolomite lime over each row by hand. Then Scott came back in to do a final tilling of the beds. Very inspiring day!!!
