I would love to see your process, do you stream, at all?
full time job + garden + restoring the house I live in.. there aren't enough hours in the day
Thanks for your answer, and kudos to you and yours for such an immense and important project! I am working towards that goal myself and am in full absorption mode, nothing better than hearing what others are doing and learning all I can.
It's a process and every year you see an improvement over the previous one.
5 years ago I've had a meadow that was slowly overgrowing with trees and some old, mostly dead fruit trees that look like from a horror movie around the house.
With just me an my wife working on it we got to half an acre of a garden, a greenhouse, tiny vineyard (if you can call 20 plants that), 50-60 fruit trees and bushes. I intend to add beehives and a chicken coop before summer.
