Fall Gardening

Fall has over taken me and all the chores are here. The leaves have mostly fallen, and I have started to collect them. 
However, on Tuesday, a young man, Justin, from church, and I got a pick up load of horse manure from down the road, and he spread it on the garden. 

Justin Spreading Manure

While he was doing that, I ground up some leaves to also spread on the garden.


Grinding Leaves


I was going to till it all in, but both of the tillers were on the fritz.
Today (Wednesday) I adjusted the Mantis and it ran better, but it wasn't tilling deep enough for me.
I took a look at the Parmi and found the problems. It was throwing a belt inside the housing. Because, a part that holds a pulley in place had become lose. I  fixed the pulley and replaced the belt and away I went. I got the whole garden tilled.
Tomorrow or Friday or Saturday (tga time), I will collect a bunch of leaves and spread them over the entire garden.
