Planting Preparation

It's that time of the year again to put in the last allotment of vines from our original order that we submitted to our nursery in the winter of 2014 for shipment/planting in the spring of 2016. Last year, we replanted 4200 vines which took us 6 days. This is the preparation work for planting. What really helped us last year to even contemplate planting 4200 vines was the rental of a dingo. This year, we rented a slightly different dingo and began slightly earlier. Our yeoman friends came at 9 a.m. Much to our embarassment, they were there before us, eager beavers! They worked continuously from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. and drilled a total of 420 holes! Only 1080 more to go!
