Hi Neighbors!
I have twenty acres 10 miles north of Show Low at about 6900 feet. I'm on year two of a three year plan. Last year, I planted fruit trees and built a fence to keep the elk and deer from eating them. This year I'm improving the soil and starting a hugelkulture project and maybe a greenhouse. Year three, a cabin. I am currently researching various cabin plans that may fit my very limited budget. I will def be looking into your yurpee.
Patricia, I think I'd take advantage of your one acre bowl and do some hugelkulture there. Worth a try and who knows what you'll end up with? Maybe just fence in that one acre to keep the cattle snacking on your garden.
I just turned 60, but still feel and think I'm twenty (OK, maybe thirty!). I'm on my own, but I think if I only get one fence post done a day, by the end of the summer I'll have a fence. And, maybe some new muscle!
We should all meet for lunch. I know we could all learn a trick or two from each other!
Best wishes for success in all of your projects!
