The start to our silvopasture

Time to get the fruit and nut trees in the ground as they are starting to bloom in my garage. We end up getting the gator stuck and using the Sany excavator to pull it to dry ground.

List of what we planted: 40 Southern Red Cedar 25 Black Locust 1 Russian Pomegranate 3 Braddywine Purple Raspberry 1 Giant Fuyu Persimmon 1 Honeycrisp Apple 1 Red Delicious Apple 1 Lapins Cherry 2 Northern James Pecan 3 Wildlife Chicksaw Plum 2 Comanche Blackberry

[@Andrewactual]

The Cherry, Persimmon, and Pomegranate are all self pollinating but since they will produce more fruit if joined, I will be on the lookout locally for something to pair them with.

Are you going to get some bees? If you do, look into Leyens hives or horizontal hives. You get less honey but they are less work. So you’d be doing it mostly for your trees.

Hello from the Netherlands and thanks for the video . don't forget to put the Gator in neutral haha

[@Andrewactual]

What kind of tool brands you all have over there?

[@Andrewactual]

I need to adjust the idle and/or belt tension I figure, for now I guess I need to shut it down or make sure it’s in neutral. I was listening to my podcast on earbuds, turned around and it was gone!

Milwaukee is my personal and work tools… the best

[@Andrewactual]

I don’t have any Milwaukee but I understand they are just as good as the other big names. Milwaukee had the only pex expander available for a while so I almost had to get on board with another battery lol

Cresent, channellock, estwing. tekton sockets aren't bad. especially the impact grade are hard to brake even when you're not being too careful. mahew for chisels and drifts. I have some oddball dewalt, sunex, and nieko from Amazon in my trucks. figure not to keep my best since they regularly walk off. older usa craftsman at home.

[@Andrewactual]

I keep hearing about these tekton, might need to order a set. I have quite the variety, gear wrench and craftsman ratchet wrenches. Can’t beat the Harbor Freight hand tool warranty either. Not a fan of their plug in power tools.

Almost all tools made in the USA are made by Stanley black & decker. Including MAC tools
