Love how everyone is sharing what they’re trying and how it’s going. I’ve found that keeping a simple log of what I plant and how each spot behaves over the seasons saves me a ton of guesswork later. Trails and trees both tell their own stories if I bother to jot things down. Makes it way easier to spot what wants a little extra care or what’s already doing its own thing.
well given the size width of that trail and the fairly rugged terrain ,the grand backdrop of hills and the good cover of nice size trees all over ,the understory of planted out food crop----you are creating a habit trail ----for a bigfoot---right past that big rock ---im just saying ---not implying -----heres my daily walked on path towards the polytunnel---thats a size 9 flip flop---my wellies are leaking so under going some glue repairs ----my apples and quinces from seed are nearly tree sizes but no blooms yet---great to read that it can be done and get nice eating/taste results.

Beautiful red soil, makes me miss daily trips over Sentinel and the Hellgate view. Always wonder why so few live inside their playground, and with apricots and cherries. Lucky man.
I think "the bird bath" is looking nice. Estaban started it by taking away the dirt and gravel piled up there, then sorting the dirt from the gravel. The gravel gets used for lots of projects and the dirt gets put on top of hugelkulturs.

Alas I fear not, for various reasons. Budget, health, and political situations aren't really conducive to such things. Tempting though, very tempting. It's been over a decade since I was there, but I think I have to accept it was the trip of a lifetime.
By pure coincidence I made a post about a Tesla only yesterday - here. Serendipity and all that...
