#25 Bigger Chicken Area, Planting Fall Cover Crops, Fall is Here

I feel like the last two growing seasons have been very affected by cut worms. I really don't want to have to deal with them again next spring so I'm trying to do everything I can to decrease their population on my flower farm. By buying and setting up another portable chicken fence, the chickens will be able to cover a lot more ground plus I feel like it will be a lot easier to move the tractor down the field. They seemed to enjoy the larger space and I am happy to have not seen any dahlia plants dug up or damaged from their digging! And it was good to finally make some time to get cover crop seeded on some unused rows. I'm really enjoying all the different seed I have now. It makes for a fun mix of cover crops and hopefully will do lots to improve my soil on my flower farm! #dahlias #covercrops #soilhealth 00:00 Intro 00:23 Cutting Dahlias 00:44 Fall is Here 01:18 It's September 01:40 Last Week's Farmers Market Update 02:03 New Chicken Fence 03:24 Chicken Talk 04:34 Rain 05:50 Cover Crop Seed 09:55 Cover Crop Planting 11:20 Harvesting Dahlias 11:49 Chickens in the Dahlias 12:33 Weekly Recap 13:33 Outro 🌻 Be sure to watch other videos from my flower farm right here:    • My Flower Farm 2024   🌻 Flower farm growing techniques featured in this video: cover crop seed, planting cover crops, harvesting, moving chicken fence, farmers market sales. 🌻 Flowers and plants featured in this video: lisianthus, dahlias. 🌻 This video was made the 1st week of September 2024.
