Drainage


We constructed hoop houses to get a jump on planting but they were too wet in April due to poor drainage. The three hoop houses are built about 4 feet apart and they are about 50 feet long. The three ditches I needed to dig felt like a lot of shoveling so I decided to use the tiniest excavator I could find.



Their was barely enough room for the machine but I am happy to say I did not ruin any plastic or hoops with an errant swing of the bucket


Chris relieved me after a couple hours of digging. He connected the ditches and is sending the water down hill.
