Hi,
My name is Ron Jones and my wife's name Lupe. We have just been introduced to organic gardening, mostly farming, but have interest in all aspects of the Organic Lifestyle.
We live in Ennis, but have a small ranch down in Navarro County where we raise Dexter Cattle and a couple of horses. We bought this place acouple of years ago and have been working to get it back in shape. It hasn't really had anything done to it for 10 or more years except to be extremely overgrazed and littered with trash. We were able to put in a garden and after much work, we had good crops and look forward to improving it this coming year.
We still need to learn as much as possible to get our pastures in better condition. So we will be asking a lot of questions. We have turned the soil a little on about 10 acres and need to apply something to bring it back to life. This area had no grass and only a few weeds, so we are open for suggestions as to what soil ammendments might be used.
Also if anyone has any interest in Dexter cattle, we need to reduce our herd.
Thanks for having us!
Ron & Lu
