Work continued on three fronts today at the New Bedlam Farm. Ben finished the barn, Todd is finishing the sheep pasture fence and the workers from Common Sense Farm are digging out the old barn foundation. A very different landscape. They are saving every scrap of wood that can be reused and we are burning the rest. Hard, gritty work amidst broken glass, garbage, nails and rotting wood. We are getting there, just some more cleaning up of old hay and manure and I think I will turn the area into an animal feeding area. We can just shovel the manure right over the wall. Have to put up some railing, though for Rocky.
