    If you are complaining about spreading hay - and I can cover my existing 185m² in a single afternoon with ease -

    I have 12000 m^2. It’s not the 1920’s where mechanical equipment is prohibitively expensive. The entire reason she developed the method was because she didn’t have access to equipment. A cultivar isn’t that expensive and far more eco friendly to till local than burn gas transporting hay ( not to mention the fertilizer needed and diesel that was burned farming the hay). I rent a big one in the spring and have a small battery electric for maintenance.

      I have 12,000m².

      Okay, so just for perspective this is 1.2ha, or 3ac, or 130,000ft².

      99.9% of all homeowners don’t have properties that exceed 0.10ha, or 0.25ac. That’s 1,011m², or 10,890ft².

      Or, in other words, even ignoring the footprint of any home, you are working with 12× the amount of land (at minimum!) that nearly everyone else in Canada or America is generally going to have access to.

      You are so ridiculously beyond the intended target audience that your example is beyond irrelevant.

        No need to get hostile. I said I was excited and then realized it didn’t apply to me.

        You got immediately hostile claiming I wasn’t prepared to garden. On top of that her methods aren’t eco friendly.
