Gold Nugget Farms

Well I am finally getting pictures up here from the produce farm I am working at. It has been really busy lately with harvest, rain, getting the last few trans plantings done, rain, a never ending string of new help and more rain. But things are going good and we are staying busy.

So this is a view of the farm early in the season and the view of the mountains from the field. What a view huh! So this post is going to be mostly about the equipment that is used at this farm. I don't have harvest pictures yet but I will get them up soon I am hope.

So this first one is the fertilizer spreader, of course this is the first step.

After the fertilizer is spread the ground is rotor-tilled with this giant sized rototiller.


Then each "bed" is roller packed. The tractor has GPS hooked up but getting the thing to work isn't always easy, so getting the beds straight is left to good old fashioned driving.

And this is the transplantor. More on this on a different post.

Once the crops are in they need culivated and this is the machine for that job.
