In this episode, I tackle the main challenge of my isolated desert ranch: sourcing and spreading mulch efficiently AND getting it to the ranch.

The high costs of mulch and hauling it from El Paso have been significant obstacles. Fortunately, we've discovered local sources of organic material, like brush piles and horse manure, which help reduce expenses.

Despite the unpredictable monsoon rains missing us, we’re gaining momentum with modest successes. Our primary focus now is on creating microclimates for our seedlings, protecting them from the harsh sun and wind. This journey is all about continuous improvement, finding efficient solutions, and making the most of every opportunity to learn and grow.
