Will see some of you today for the Spring CSA, but also wanted to share a quick note about the spring. I’m grateful that I have been working with premade beds, since, as is common, we have a wet spring and preparing beds between the rains would be, and has been challenging.
Part of the pre-made beds issue that I’ve run into in the past is that if the spring is very wet the weeds start taking off before I can even scratch the surface of the bed to plant. Last year I had the idea of a horse implement that I could use to do this. The implements I have used with the previous horses I can’t use with the horses that are here now (that’s a bit of a long story). I designed it and had it fabricated and am trying it out for the first time this spring. Not a lot of time for experimentation, but with continual tweaking it’s coming along.
Still trying to come up with a name for the tool… any ideas?
