Starting the fruit tree orchard
The new dam is slowly filling up
Ripping the future vegie patch expansion
The new house fence
Landscaping around the house
The new fence along the driveway
Building the pergola
Dinner time
Yes, there is a goddess in the woods

Hanging out after work
The wwoofers building the new landscape feature
Mushroom compost
New fence around house
Magnus, Amelia, and Hanna
It took a lot of soil to fill the center piece
We had a lot of helpers
Learning more about compost tea near Cairns
Our new solar hot water unit for the floor heating system
Moving 50 head of cattle from Ian Perkins place to the land - a distance of around 15 km
Putting down 2 " poly pipe to be able to pump up water from the dams and store it in tanks on the hills, and also to be able to have water spots for the cattle
It takes a big spinner to get the massive spools of poly pipe out.
The pipe laying plow
The new tanks
Gravity fed supply of water to stock
Mulching up the citrus trees for the winter
We have a great way to get mulch fast and easy
My Korean wwoofer putting down garlic to grow over winter
It doesn't look like a big spot of land, but it generated and amazing amount of garlic
We mulch it heavily to keep away the weeds and to create a good enviroment for the garlic
We have now jumped to August when I returned form overseas, and we are busy burning stacks of old timber
An old dead tree works as a chimney
A wild fire at a neighbors place which we helped to control
The wwoofers did a great job helping out
Seeding up potatoes
Louise preparing the seed beds
The yeoman plow heading out to the fields for another day of ripping the soil on a keyline system
The deep ripping action from the Keyline plow
It creates very little disturbance in the paddock
Well, spring is here
After a dry winter, all the growing action are in the gullies
Flooding the swale next to the house
Trying out a few other seeding implements for the future
Everyday we make new paddocks for the cattle with a single wire electric fence
In areas where we don't have gravity feed water we pump up to a trailer with 2,000 L. tanks
On one side we did some burning this winter and the other we didn't
Gathering around the water
