Lotta prep work?
Not really because we have tractors about 3-4 hours tilling each -(baseball size field) added bags of fertilizer to the ground, added hay to keep ground cool. We set up a drip watering system, with fish guts in the tank. Next year we will be hauling in chicken crap to revitalize the soil and add nitrates.
Sounds good. I'm putting together a reclamation setup that will hopefully do most of the watering so by next year it'll be good to go (much smaller plot). Chickens I'm mulling over but once you get livestock you're basically stuck there and I travel a lot.
That's true. Im lucky in that aspect my husband has over 3000 family members close by. I've taken 2 vacations this summer, and after I move first week of August, I'm going to the Keys, plus deepsea fishing.
