    I enjoyed watching the video of starting the wildflower patch. Healthy plants grow well in good soil. I enjoyed watching the video.

    Great stuff and love the idea of getting farmers harvesting off meadows. And also drawing focus to other suppliers. Got a few videos going forward over the summer which might be of interest.

    Thank you so much! I'm getting ready to plant a meadow on the side and back of my house for my chickens. You answered all of my specific questions about seeds and soil (even though we're on opposite sides of the pond). I just have to learn to convert grams to ounces lol. I'd like to use natives so I've further research to do for american seed mixes

    Thanks for the message. You'll find it tough to get much going when there are chickens around though! They're super destructive...

    @@HabitatAid Oh yes I know! I'll put a temporary fence around the new plantings for at least 6 months if not a year. I typically have 9 hens on 1/2 acre food forest to free range so I'm adding this plot to increase the volume of really nutritious greens and seeds :)

    Not covering at all after sowing, do you not experience birds gorging themselves on your seed?

    Generally no - not unless you have a flock of pigeons!

    Hi Pat - tricky! I'm afraid if you heavy and relatively fertile soil it's going to like you. Manual removal is the best option.
