I AM music was singing away "Wind of Change" to myself and it worked changed my attitude towards it ..anyway!

Had a go on it today.. i noticed, for some reason if you do it without getting in a bad temper , singing away to yourself, you get it done faster.. just pull one vine at the time cut away wire, pull another one.. it does work.. just feel like mother earth wanted to teach me be patient.. (the "thing" was "constructed" by a tornado, from a large roof covered with fallopia, the chicken fence and an elm tree). I haven´t lost my temper over it today and it seems to be much smaller now....

I can,t get it separated from the wire, its all tied in knots, there was a broken down tree in it too and I got out by cutting it bit by bit and then pulling out the pieces. We have a thatched roof our house is just beside it, so I can´t burn it (otherwise that would have been my first choice).. I can´t get a vehicle into there...I have started cutting it bit by bit with wire cutters and pruning sheers, during whole winter (its there since October) , but now its starting to get roots ... I´m not fast enough that way... and I´m getting p****** off too :/

I have a big load (about 20 cubic meters) of Fallopia aubertii, muddled up with wire mesh sitting in my back yard... Its a terrible mess, and anything I tried for to cut it away, doesn´t work. Anyone an idea what do do ?

If you get temperatures below -5 C regularly in winter, forget about almonds..they bloom in february, need bees and of course no frost then..

Hi everybody
I´m here for the first time..I´m living in europe, owning a 4 acre sized little perma-farm..its located at 55th latitude and I guess I have nealy every possible and useful plant here, which can stick the climate ..wonder if there are plants, trees , vegs ..people grow on your side of the atlantic ocean in a similar situation, the like of canada or the south of alaska ,which I could cultivate here as well. I´m also looking contact to other "northern permies" just to swap information, seeds an stuff..
