Western Prairie

Western Prairie is a huge field along the western edge of our property.  It starts just north of Big View Prairie, and its northern boundary is the northern edge of our land.  It's nearly 60 acres, so I divided it into 3 parts and planted it over 3 years.  I planted the southernmost section (section 1) by hand in the winter of 2005/2006, the middle one (section 2) by hand in the winter of 2006/2007, and the northernmost section (section 3) with a seed drill in November of 2007.

This aerial photo shows the whole field and how I divided it into sections.

These links have stories and photos of what I've done each year.
