    Well got a call fom a friend looking to do a 1 acre bean plot. So we loaded up and headed for the spot. It was alot of work but got it done. Virgin ground can be a challenge I mowed this spot 4 times then tilled it twice Still wasn’t happy with all the grass on top But seeded it anyhow. Now just like we scripted it rained most of the day. We also saw quite a few deer while we were working they sure are nosey little suckers. After 10 hours on a forklift at work then 1 hour in the truck then 4 hours on the tractor then another hour in the truck This old boy is dragging today Should have taken more pics sorry Cleared out another spot for a turnip plot to be planted later. I may need to get a bigger tractor

    Beans and Turnips is a deadly combo!

    Think this year my harvest plot is going to be black dirt. Never fails, every time you dig something up, there are tracks going through it before you finish seeding.
