I recently found a "bunch" of of wild blackberries on my property, and I have decided to see how many I can grow without it becoming stressful. So, I have decided to try and plant blueberries, raspberries, blackberries on our land. The first objective is to get as many as I can into the freezer, but after that they are "first come, first serve." This has been a learning process, but it is much better than watching TV all day.

"Black Gold"
I just made the connection with the "Black Gold" ... a.k.a "horse manure" this morning, and I'm picking it up this afternoon. I have been using manure for years in my garden, as well as other composted material. Right now, it will help "break down" the bushes I am trimming over the next few weeks. In the past, I have used my truck, but this year, I am going to use trailer, which we recently bought last fall. This way, I will not have to rush to get it out of my truck, and I can move it around to specific areas of the land.
