Roberto is our demon tractor driver here on the farm. He does a great job all day, every day. He is seen here cultivating the bed where our tomato crop was this summer. he will plant spinach and lettuce into these beds on Friday. Today he planted onions with the help of three of the crew on the planting sled. This is a slow job as we plant the onions close together.
He is also working on preparing the ground in the orchard to plant vines this winter. He will be chiseling the ground to break up any hard patches. Then he will use a disk to cultivate a loose tilth to plant the vines into.
