When we moved in, fall was upon us and the dropped leaves gave us new visibility of the property we purchased. Suddenly, everything made much more sense; we could see the trails, the natural springs, flow and the property lines. It was truly amazing. When spring 2021 came around, we witness the abundance and the growth; our Mayflower forest at the deer crossing where the springs meet; the Trillium patches along the springs and under the trees; the native Rivercane lining the back of the property springs; fern gulley at Magnolia crossing; and the jewel – Golden Chanterell mushroom forests along the trails.
The existing animal trails were kept in use and expanded. Billy bush hogged trails for mobility and a spring side campground for access and we continued trekking and clearing walking trails.
