Because the Wesleyan land is not fenced in and is being grazed by the local people's cattle, he is focusing at this time on the neighbor's property.
This will provide seed and cuttings [propagation material] for our location as well as for nursery stock when we are ready for them, hopefully within the next year.

While it doesn't surprise me ... that is an awesome list of plantings. Cory, you are amazing! Kristi and Anna ... you are too for all that y'all are doing in this move. We miss you all!
I've excitedly watched my asparagus (planted a couple of months ago) start to shoot. Nice to know we're growing some of the same things.
Mulberries are a favourite from my childhood.
Looking forward to hearing more about the preparations.
