~~More about this video~~
Our last soil samples were taken over 2 years ago, and we've had a lot of tree losses. We're hoping we can continue to improve soil fertility while we learn more about growing trees and improve tree survival rates.

~~About Us~~
We're a 43 acre Christmas tree farm in central Virginia. We bought the property in November 2018 and have been documenting our whole journey starting this business from the ground up. We didn't have any ag experience prior to starting this business, so we're constantly learning as we go!

We are thankful for you viewers and subscribers and love your comments and feedback!

We would greatly appreciate it if you'd give this video a LIKE if you’re enjoying the content.
