Installation at FeF

Thad and Will arrived on July 1, in the evening, with a fabricated dome and began installation today, the 2nd. They plan on installation for the next two days, and have to zip out pretty quick to take care of their homesteads. So far Gabi showed them where the best spot for the installation is, close to a source of water, and close to the garden to keep all the food currently growing in the same general area.

Will brought humate, dragonite (basalt minerals), and zeolite. His worm bin is very high-tech, and this prototype emphasizes water reclamation. Bought 1.5 yards of dirt nearby and trucked it here, we used the leftovers for the fall garden half barrels.

Area got cleaned up using the string trimmer for optimal videography.

After three days it was installed, and Thad filmed the entire process in detail. They left on Thursday to tend to their own homesteads, and will return before the end of summer to install the electronic system.
