No, seriously. These are tools I was using today.
2. Step 1, oak seedling, marked with steel post, surrounded by a clump of grass I have been unable to mow.
3. Step 2, cut away the grass clump with the sickle to give the seedling light and air.
4. Step 3, pull up the steel post and replace with wood post. Drive wood post in with hammer.
If the wood post gets knocked down by cattle or deer, it won't tear up the mower.
5. In clumps where the seedling had died, I cut away the grass, pulled up the post, planted a different seedling (shellbark hickory, persimmon, blackhaw, or hazelnut, on this day) and then drove in a wooden post.
Hammer, sickle, shovel, stakes, seedlings, all on donkey cart.
