Re forestation Progress



For a few years now Sharon and I have been working to restore the forest on our second acre next door . The front of it had been cleared over 10 years ago to improve the ocean view. Since then it developed into a real mess of tangled vines and weeds. After weeks and weeks of pretty intense labor (not to mention a rash that took quite a while to clear up) it was cleared. We since have added native plants and over time have roughly worked out planting areas and even some paths! Maybe one day we will even figure out what we are doing! Even if we don’t we have achieved a fairly good record of keeping plants healthy. This is more rewarding than I ever imagined!
