I have roughly 1,000 landrace fodder trees in my back lot. Mostly Quaking Aspen with some cherry, elm, oak, beech and red maple. Once my hand heals I'll be planting 37 black mulberries and just bought cuttings of hybrid willow, hybrid poplar, and white mulberry to get rooted. I'm working the fruit trees and higher-growth hybrid trees in system with my pig pen to help feed the trees, basically just planting them outside the fence. Any tips for managing fertility for trees? Some of them will be harvested multiple times a year and some will be harvested every few years for useable firewood.
As a farmer, I am a steward of the land and it’s animals.
My job is to feed both people and nature, to build up the world around me.
Farmers are healers of the land and providers of the people.
I will do my best to keep a clean and healthy environment that would be pleasing to God
