Chainsaw Parties 2013, a year ago this week



  Tim, Gus, Dave, and Alicia

Hello, all!
You and your families are invited to:

Chainsaw Parties
March 9 and March 16, 2013
10 am- 3 pm
Come help us cut down and de-limb trees in preparation for our new orchard.
Once the last dozen trees are down, we'll be moving logs into place.

If you have a chainsaw, pulleys, heavy duty rope/cable, and other tools for pulling, limbing, or cutting- bring them!



 

This was the humble invitation I sent out wondering, "If a tree doesn't fall because a chainsaw party is thrown and no one comes..."



But people came.  Chainsawing is addictive.  Can't stop with just one.  People who have a chainsaw quickly cut down everything chainsaw-able of their own and are delighted to be invited on a warm March day to come and chainsaw some more.


This was us a year ago today.  
Here's the orchard today.  You can see the downed trees lying perpendicular to the slope in the foreground.
