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 .
