Leaves are falling all around the property and I wanted to clean up the entrance and parking area. The rake on the tractor does a great job raking leaves and sticks to smooth and prep our parking lot for Christmas season.
~~About Us~~ We're a 43 acre Christmas tree farm in central Virginia. We bought the property in November 2018 and have been documenting our whole journey starting this business from the ground up. We don't have any ag experience prior to starting this business, so we're constantly learning as we go!
The new Eastonmade 40c firewood processor has some advanced features for high production from a smaller round saw machine.

Based on our latest soil test, we have become more aware just how poor our soil is. I'll share our results and give some specifics about our nutrient management plan and our plans to amend the soil in the coming seasons so we can have better results growing christmas trees in the future.

I've been wanting to build this carry all (aka carryall) for a while. This is a Countyline carry all that was left on our property when we purchased it. Our carry all is bent from previous misuse, so I wasn't sure how it would come together. Using dimensional lumber I put a 5-foot wide back and bottom on it, then repurposed a wooden gate for the sides. I cut a dado into 2x4s for my saw holders. Later I'll add other tool racks to it. I'm looking forward to taking this county line carry all out into the woods and using it for fire wood and other farm chores.

I've documented before how our soil is deficient in several key nutrients so we have to add a lot of fertilizer. Many people have asked me "whats the best fertilizer for christmas trees?" or "what do you recommend for fertilizer?" and I routinely have to suggest following the soil test recommendations.

Using temporary, portable light poles, we strung up string lights and flood lights to light up our tree lot and to also illuminate our parking lot and fire pit area.
