Jeff and Lars worked all week making trellis post holes for the new grapes. Right now, the grape vines are still small enough that the tractor can straddle them, so it was a bit time-sensitive to get these post holes done. Jeff also sharpened all 150 posts with his chain saw this week. Today - with Zach's help - they "pounded" the posts in, using the tractor's front bucket, which we weighed down with rocks. It does not look that exciting yet - just a big field with fence posts in rows. Now we have to install the end-posts and then run the wires for the trellis.
