Greenville, KY

Harvested Pine needles. Re‐cleared path that I started working on during Reunion and extended it. Took photographs of Pine trees, rose hips, and cat-tail like plants.

Hunted for nuts in southern forest and found Shagbark Hickory trees (and nuts) and a fallen nut from a smaller tree (possibly Pignut Hickory). Cut Japanese Honeysuckle in southwest forest and on western edge near the brush pile. Found a few Goldenrod with new flowers but not many. Boneset is flowering. Rose hips are in both brush piles and ripening. Elderberries on southern end have new growth.

Could not find the black raspberries. Broadcasted on top of hügelkultur: Lacinato "Dinosaur" Kale and Monstrueux De Viroflay Spinach.

See green Chinese Chestnuts on the tree and brown ones (not full) on the ground.

Transplanted 3 Red Mulberry seedlings: one near the ditch on the northwestern edge. The other two in northwestern quadrant. Transplanted wild black raspberry in red saw dust from last year. Harvested Chinese Chestnuts.
