Breaking Ground: Started this weekend with heavy equipment, clearing a driveway, chopping cedars to be used for fencing, and clearing enough area for our greenhouse. Punching a hole in the overgrown brush and dead trees makes room for ample sunlight to help our microgreens thrive in their new home!

Some of these vines were 8" wide, wrapping around otherwise healthy oak trees. We'll continue widening the driveway, and moving fallen trees around this week, then leveling the greenhouse pad - bringing in gravel and whatnot. Then the greenhouse will be delivered - any takers on assistance with raising it???

Also in our discoveries on this property - we've found that part of it was orchard (peaches and cherries)... we've managed to salvage a few, clear some room for them to flourish, and hopefully keep them around for future pickin's! The peaches aren't very big (golf ball size) but I think we'll have a small crop this year... the cherries have been donated to the many birds though.
Sounds like a big project but very productive for your business. Best wishes and best of luck with it.
