Reforestation

Earlier this year we bought about 50 spruce plants, so hopefully in a couple of years we have a lot of Christmas trees available. Back in May my father and I did prepare the location, had to cut down a lot of Sambucus Racemosa (Rødhyll), a plant which is actually blacklisted here in Norway. A real pain in the ass, it grows very fast and forces away other species which naturally belongs here. A lot of work collecting all the branches.

When done, time to plant the spruces. I did this on the 16´th of May

And this picture was taken yesterday, a lot of fresh Rødhyll. The fight continues to ensure good conditions for the spruces.
