Roller is far ahead of me on the Orchard thing but I've started working on ours. Of course I have to clear the ground before I can do anything
Marked out a little over an acre then started with the bushog as you can see there's lot of small trees and a few big ones what you can't see are all the stumps that are cut off low and I can't see them from the tractor seat either
What I had to do was run with the root rake stuck in the ground just a little to find the stumps. It's a slow process next will be hooking up the backhoe and getting rid of some of the stumps I can now see.
Getting started
Here's the stuff you can see
The bigger trees closest to the camera have to go too
One tree is down it put up a good fight but lost
Move it out of the way and there's the next one
Grr this one won round one kinda it broke off it's gone but I'm gonna have to use the backhoe to dig the stump
Here they are out of the way I'll go back and cut them up for firewood later
Done with the bushog
There's a coupe of the stumps that are high enough to see next step will be getting them dug out
Thanks for looking I'll update the thread as I make progress
