Summer Holidays

Posted by Carolyn Holmes over 10 years ago

Learning to read our landscape

So I can tell that the land has been heavily excavated in parts, back to moss and lichen growing, in other parts we have thistle growing, so calcium and magnesium deficient IN Soil,  And Compacted as well. I've learnt that our zone 1 at moment gets very heavy dew, being the lowest point, and that at the top of the hill there is no dew. The land is covered with grasses and weed flowers, lots of blackberry,  ragwort we have been busy digging out by the trailer load.  It kind of looks like little house on the Prairie.  We also moved ten ton of gravel on the driveway. Hard slog but at least we can get up driveway now in winter. Waiting for the PDC announcement should be soon I hope.
