A City Garden Farm Lives!!

4/23/2008 11:54pm by Martin and Dan

Well, it took a wee while for the rain to stay away but last Sunday Broc and I got Mossy Point finished and Man does it look like a farm or what!

In my last blog our intrepid duo finished the day with a roughly tilled area of about 800-1000 sq ft to finish and an additional 600 ft to fully prepare. Broc got the Tiller into action, waved his magic rake, cruised the plot on his 'earthway seeder' and fashioned these freaking fabulous finished furrows!!!! Things of beauty they are.

Finished Furrows

Inspired by this furrowing frenzy Moss ventured to a part of the yard labelled "life before City Garden Farms".... I mean look at it people!  Look at it!  

Life Before City Garden Farms!

 

Never fear!  Broc and Moss are here!  And within an hour of pulling up the plastic, weeding and clearing some debris Broc again employed the talents of his faithful tiller (that's Ryobi to you!) and then called upon all his furowing experience to craft THIS!!!!

 

 tillin' and Chillin'

 

The gods of Mossy Point shone down upon Broc as he headed into the home stretch cruising the furrows on his Earthway seeder!  The clouds parted, angels sang and sunrays rained down upon Broc as he finished the last line of seeds.  You want the proof!  Check him out!

 

A choir of Angels sing as Broc seeds....Honestly!

 

The work was nearly finished. While Broc worked his magic on the soil Moss edged his raspberries with stone and log and both agreed it was fine days work.

Broc thought he had the last word when he said to Moss "Not bad not bad for a city boy."  Moss looked at him like this and said "Who are you calling a city boy?....I'm an Urban Farmer!!!"

....and he is.

 

Who are you callin' city boy?

What sorts of things do you grow in your farm? And I particularly like your green bran!
