With the majority of the arable work done, just some P and K to apply when I conditions allow, our eyes turn towards the inevitable winter maintenance requirements.
This winter we are focusing on fencing. With about 2.5Km needing attention we will be quite busy for most of the winter. The most urgent ones, those containing the sheep in will be targeted first. The fencing team is made up of Derek, Gordon and Graham (when he isn't loading grain - lots moving at the moment). We are currently doing some of the fences at Manor Farm Conderton before heading up on Bredon Hill (hopefully it will be warmer by then!) As always the team is accompanied by a 45 gallon drum to burn all of the off cuts and old stakes providing some much needed warmth during breakfast and lunch.
