    Great to have so many trees you can transplant. So many people would just cut them down. Also to have a water source on the property. I live on 5 acres in NZ and the first thing we did years ago was dig a big pond which stays full all year and gravity feeds the troughs, which I use for watering plants in summer dry times. Look forward to watching your progress.

      Thank you for watching and your comment Jeanette. Awh wow I bet your place is incredible!! Being in North Wales is vert wet so good for dry spells to. The stream is actually an out flow from two reservoirs around 20 miles away. I've also got a continuous spring in the top of the field too 😁. Thank you again 😊😄

    Gate looks perfect😊 How lovely it will be watching those tress grow as the years go by, Loving your videos. Any plans for the stream running through? I remember my parents digging and tidying up the steam where we lived, when I was younger, used to love playing in it.🙂

      Diolch / Thank you Millie 😊. I've layed over these transplants now, to hope they grow thick and strong this season. Not right to the ground, just so limb cuts. You legally can't alter or touch mapped rivers / streams, rightly so. The water is so so clean and pure. In summer it's a real shimmering beauty. Currently snow drops line its sides on the lower section 👌😍. Storm babet wiped out my bridge, so I'll be placing a new wooden one soon. Sounds bliss and great memories!

      For the last year and still on going, is getting it all back to a working smallholding. I have some of my girls on the fields and more during summer. Girls moved in last May. I work with wool, not meat. Thanks for your time 🙂😁
