!! In the quiet hours of the bootcamp grind, I found myself: Esteban's Bootcamp Experience

B.E.L. Post # 202

This morning after our crew meeting, we got the day rolling with a solid mix of tending the land and building momentum on ongoing projects.

I tasked Leo and Melissa with irrigating the garlic patch and the trees along the berm at Far Arrakis, followed up with some good old chop and drop to continue building fertility and supporting the landscape. While they were carrying out those tasks, Jesse and I continued the chop and drop along the streetside of the Turtle Berm, turning overgrown biomass into future soil.

During that time, I also set up sprinklers at Lightning Hill to keep things moving with the watering rotation. At 11 AM, we switched gears and I continued working on the final hugel step for the grape plant project, bringing that piece closer to completion.

After lunch, we all headed over to the Abbey. Jesse and Melissa took on irrigation and chop and drop duties while Leo and I continued framing up our junkpole panel sections. Slowly but surely, the pieces are coming together — transforming raw materials into functional structures while continuing to nurture the land around us.

Another day of building, growing, and learning with the landscape. 🌱
