Healthy soil and sustainable growing

["John D'hondt" <dhondt@eircom.net>]

We see winter coming on as well Paul. The days are noticeably much shorter 
than even a few weeks ago. We have nearly finished planting winter 
crops.From experience we know that anything planted after the first of 
October can not be counted on.
Still, the weather is much better now than all though Spring and summer.

But we are still busy. We are expecting lambs in the second half of December 
and soon the cattle will have to come in and then most of our work is 
feeding and carting away the left overs.
