Down on the Farm
Strawberry planting with Martin and James - the much easier way!
When we bought the farm twenty years ago, there was a old rusty strawberry planter we thought was only good for some kind of antique display. Martin saw it and said, “I’m fixing that and using it! None of this back-breaking planting by hand anymore.” And he did!
And they did it – Martin and James got the whole field planted smartly and quickly.
