Hi everybody.
I recently purchased a trashed out parcel of land which has taken a lot in getting cleaned up. My goal is an edible forest garden with a small herd of dairy goats browsing along some of it. Right now, the bulldozer, which was required to unearth the tons of trash left by a series of renters has left the clay bare. How do I get started in returning productivity and health to this? Please keep in mind I am not rich and live sustainably simply. I don't have a lot of resources but can take a long range approach. The front of the property is much better and will be planted soon. The back of the property is wooded and relatively clean so will be left as is. It is the middle section which was so trashed that only leveling all of it, including the trees which had sprouted on top raw metal, broken glass and treated wood, could begin to address the danger there. But now it is bare. How do I begin? Thanks.
