When I think back when I first started watching you …. you couldn’t see anything especially “ the Old Byrd Farm”. All you could see was those nasty wisteria vines. Now look at it. Wow! It’s amazing. You can see your land n the house. You’ve worked so hard at this n it’s paying off. I’m sure as proud of yourself as we are of you. Couldn’t have done it without that big orange tractor. It’s definitely been a God send. I’m loving what I see. ( I still say you’ve got a spring under ground. That mud should of least dried up some. Oh well, we’ll see come summertime. ♥️♥️😊👍🌟🌟

Hi Robert, Frank from Liverpool UK. I am still convinced you will have to create a pond area to aleviate your bog area. Remember you showed us your neighbors marshy land, it is a possibility it drains onto yours. Keep up the good work.
@cynthiaschulz5008 Жыл бұрын
Robert, perhaps, in the past there was a pond in what is now the swamp/bog. Because it is always wet, it may very well be fed by an underground spring. Have you found any indication that there may have been a spring house in that area? A natural pond/small lake would be a lovely addition to the farm. I applaud your persistence, patience, and determination. Congratulations on the enormous accomplishments you’ve achieved by yourself in a relatively short time.

You can see all your hard work and perseverance has not been in vain Robert, just look at it all! It's amazing. Now that more of that land is open " the swamps area" that the sun will dry it out to where you can work with that portion of land, but think you still really need to get some one in there for help with drainage issues, and IF that is an underground spring, how best to control the flow so it doesn't mess up the land as much and you can still cultivate it..
