Eating Through The Woods Like Termites
The nearly twenty acres that Beth and I purchased for pasture for the program had more trees on it than I realized. Though the land is adjacent to the horse lot, I had not walked through hardly any of it in the past decade.
The progress that we are making in clearing the land is phenomenal.
Wendell purchased a brush buster and has walked many miles behind it in the last few weeks. We have had several chainsaws going at it hard, but the moving, the lifting,the toting, and the piling is all being done by volunteers.
Most of those volunteers were young enough to order off of the kids menu a few short years ago.
The kids are doing great work, learning a lot and ......having fun.
