For the past few weeks Hana and I have been building boardwalks and managing a privately owned woodlot. I have been using a small chainsaw and Hana has been using manual clippers to remove the smaller saplings. We are cutting birch, aspen (poplar), conifer, and other weedy trees and keeping transplanted Viburnum (
high bush cranberry),
Hawthorne, oaks, and other
desirable plants that will attract wildlife. By clearing the area below the owner's house it will allow an improved view of wildlife - especially birds! Hana and I have a lot of fun working in the woods together!
As the summer winds down to school Hana was also asked to spiff up a garden before we stopped working. Here is their beautiful garden!
