Farm Life Update: A Day of Hard Work and New Friends!
Hey there, farm enthusiasts! 🌾 Today was a bustling day on the farm, filled with chores, challenges, and a sprinkle of excitement. Here’s a quick rundown of what went down!
Herbicide Spraying and Coconut Replanting
- We kicked off the day by spraying herbicides in the Hybrid Sections and along the West Barangay Road Section.
- Unfortunately, we lost quite a few coconut trees to pesky rats! 🐀 But don’t worry; we’re on it! Next week, we’ll be deploying rat poison to tackle the problem head-on.
- Replanting will commence where needed, and we’ll also be fertilizing all the trees since they’re due after six months. Just a quick reminder: keep dogs and chickens out of the treated areas for their safety!
Tackling Erosion with Irrigation
- We also focused on water irrigation to combat erosion and manage the massive water flow in certain areas.
- Our water filtration system is still missing a few parts, but we’re working on getting it sorted!
Welcoming New Family Members
- The highlight of our day? We welcomed two adorable Chihuahua puppies and a Labrador Mix into our farm family!
- Chihuahuas are the smallest dog breed in the world, hailing from Mexico.
- Labradors are friendly and loyal, perfect companions for farm life.
- A huge thank you to our neighbor Meraflor Santos for her generosity, and a special shoutout to her dad for the chicken! 🐔 It’s wonderful to see neighbors helping each other out. Remember, that’s what love and community are all about!
Sharing the Spirit
- In the spirit of giving back, I’m offering all the Napier Grass along the cliff and creek. Feel free to take as much as you can carry for the next six months! Just text me for entry so my team can assist you.
That’s a wrap on today’s farm adventures! Stay tuned for more updates, and let’s keep this community spirit alive. Happy farming, everyone! 🌿
