New project!

9 acres.
This will be my first larger project and I'm rather excited about it all. This project aim is to reach the surrounding community and help bridge the gaps and differences between races. The goal is to turn it into a food forest but in a way that complements local ecology. Some will be left natural to preserve natural biodiversity. The Church group that owns it owns 15 foot into the creek. the creek is fresh water mostly but during high tide it's brackish. This will be a great opportunity to increase the fish population as well as the populations of cleaning organisms such as clams and other shellfish. There is one alligator that hangs out further back. I think it's probably 6 to 7 ft long. I'll have to be mindful when we get pigs and goats as gators are well known for eating animals that get near the bank. A lot of little dogs have gone missing in this state. A quick google search will bring up many headlines.

These are some fuzzy pics but this is some of the view I wake up to every morning. 

Sweet potato, Hibiscus acetosella (a popular edible and my largest seller when I sell at farmers markets. Banana trees, and a lot of other stuff. 

White sweet potato and regular sweet potato. 

Words of wisdom. 
So I was hanging out with my cat and my cat seemed to know a lot about how to move it's body. He's been training since he was a kitten. Therein is the secret to becoming a master of your own body. Train daily. Train nightly. Push yourself and don't get stagnant. 

Vid of the day.
