The Brushpile

This YouTube video shows how to juice, and this works for all fruits and berries; just add sugar to taste.

Pretty sure the first thread I ever read when I joined the now defunct forum in 2013 was the Brushpile. The memory of dealing with what seemed to be a never-ending drought is what I remember most. Then came the tracking dogs. One of the patriarchs on this forum! Keep getting it done Brad!

Thank you for posting that Brushpile. The link is very informative and will be tried here.

Always glad to help. I juice Elderberry, Chokeberry and Tomatoes, but the juicer can be used for apples, pears, and other fruit.

Tons of rain has made it difficult to get anything done. I planted my first trees in 2008, and now they need thinning. I hope to post lots of picks soon. Wayne will also be paying a visit soon. I have his puppy. ;-)

Looking forward to some pictures from the Brushpile! How are things going there?

There is a ton of work to be done, Lumite to be lifted, cages to remove, and trees to be cut. Food plots need lime and fertilizer, and all of this is done by hand or with hand tools.

Here is a Chinese Chestnut that need the Lumite removed.

This is a row of Chinese Chestnuts, and eventually I'll cut every other one.

Here is a row of Elderberry. I thinned the row and didn't treat the stumps, so that they will sprout from the stump. The row of pines planted behind them were dropped to allow in more Sun.

This is an alfalfa plot screened by cedar and pines. There are 12-15 pear trees around and down the middle of this plot.

Pines are being thinned, but many are left standing to provide ease of movement and locations for deer stands.

This is a double trunked Chinese Chestnut, about 8-9 years old, and large enough to produce a good amount of mast.

There are 5 small plots like this on The Brushpile. All plots are green plots of Alfalfa or clover, plus there is a Chi

Do you pull the weed mat up from shrubs also? Or just from below trees once they get larger?

What an incredible tour! Thank you so much for sharing. You’re not that far from us I don’t believe. Maybe we’ll call on one of your wonder dogs sometime.

I hope so, and would be happy to meet you and help recover your deer.
