Thanks mud, Unfortunaley I will still have to work full time at a second career to survive. I will only turn 39 the month after I retire, so I at least get to start the second fairly young for a second career.
Ok back on to the yard filling in.
I was gifted 500 atlantic white cedar trees today, and no I am not going to fill up the yard with the. I am however in the front yard start hiding the house, then move onto the opposite side of the yard. Of course there will be alot more trees than what I need, but it was take 500 or take none. I might see about finding some other property near by to plant them on, I would hate to waste them.
Also got some more news on the vineyard side of the yard,
The ag lady is going to come out after I get my soil samples back and help me lay out where everything will go. She did mention that with doing the bunch grapes that I want to do, it would be best to put the raspberries and blackberries inbetween the rows of grapes. She said this would help with one of the problems that bunch grapes have in this area. The way it will work will look something like this
G1 G1 G1 G1
R1 R1 R1 R1
G2 G2 G2 G2
B1 B1 B1 B1
G3 G3 G3 G3
and so on.
