With the last two years of working on our farm we planted apple and plum trees. This year during the second week of April we planted wind break trees and hop vines. For wind breaks we got 100 American Red Pine and 100 Colorado Blue Spruce and planted the along the northern border of our land. We also planted 20 hop vines, 5 different varieties: Cascade, Magnum, Perle, Fuggle, and Northern Brewer.
Also when were working on this we were talking with a building about a cabin, and also to someone for putting in a well and someone to finance it all. Things are set in motion and we plan on building a cabin on our land this fall and moving into it sometime in the next year. Everything will be off of the grid, and we will try to to live and farm in a sustainable fashion.
