The Hunolts Part 2
On a Mission to Steward Nature with Their Organic Farming
The last eight months have been a fruitful learning experience as we strive to fulfill the romantic notions of what we would like to do on this land. In the short time that we have been here, we feel that we have done well hashing out a few of our ideas into reality. As we delve into the cold, short days of winter, we are provided with a quieter time to withdraw and dream of the next stage that we want to unfold. Future plans include Warre hive beekeeping, planting a hops yard and native fruiting hedgerows. We also plan to let our chickens reproduce if they go broody. by Jason and Branwen Hunolt
This past year was a whirlwind of activity from the moment we moved our belongings into the house. Amidst the chaos of boxes, packing papers, minor home improvements and adjusting to the surreal reality that we owned a home, we were faced with the ticking clock of a late start to getting seeds into the ground. We had to grit our teeth, ignore fatigue and get to work. In so doing, we managed to fence off a very large garden with rabbit fencing, plant it, build a gate, build trellises, raise baby chicks and build a hen house.
