We have designated wednesdays as the group weedpull. we covered the bottom swale today, which had the least peanut planted in it. really not enough enough peanut planted in it evidently. still, once we had weeded the whole bed, it does look like their is a lot more peanut than before.
we took a break in the midday, I went to town to dump the trash at the dump/ do banking/get compost/rescue a single mother from her drunken abusive boyfriend and pick up goat food (Del's is now being managed by a very switched on goat aware woman who has a flock of 80 in Haiku), and I picked up food scraps from vegout and twin falls (sold a box of lillikoi while I was at it - ones I had collected whilst planting degluptas in the bottom of the gulch yesterday - lillikoi's into brandisii yeah!) and in the afternoon we spread mulch on the swale and planted a few more peanut seedlings and used up so much more of the last available pond water. we also put out about 20 more pineapple tops that we collected as part of the food scraps from twin falls. also picked up eric who is going to do work trade for us while marshall is away in mainlandland.
spoke to jim from sunpumps about the solar pump for our needs before I went to town, and moved some money to pay for the order I will make tomorrow...
