Good info Skip . I mainly want to see if I can grow any ? It will probably take forever? Pecans will be an interesting watch as well …

I added a Fireside in Iowa . We have had great success with Fireside in Minnesota. I would rank it #1 or #2 with Chestnut Crab so far ….

I’ll try for the 50-60 gallon range . I can make a few trips from the farm site if necessary.

Yamaha Viking is slightly bigger than a Ranger. It’s a UTV type …

Revisiting this thread… I’m wondering if my Yamaha Viking could haul a 60 G tank in the back ? Maybe 40 gallon is best ?

They make dang good firewood!

I think there are some causing damage to crop by Pierre? I’m not sure . I was told you can get a NR cow elk tag West River if you own land . In one area… same thing, some drop damage issue. Might be depredation tag ?

This is my understanding of trusts.. we have one now . Basically because Minnesota has a large state death tax . Trusts do NOT protect your assets from a nursing home . I was told that by several attorneys. You would have to transfer the ownership in the land to your kids . Therefore I bought...

Cottonwood—We will have to agree to disagree… Here is what I’m dealing with in Minnesota. 9% taxation on income .44% taxation to pay for family leave (paying employees not to work). A gun control bill that bans ARs 19 billion tax payer $$ lost to fraud . Mostly in Minneapolis/St.Paul by...

The nut bundle got planted. 5 of each … Pecan, Shellbark hickory, Black Walnut . I guess we will see how they survive ?

No you won’t change my opinion. But post some actual numbers on how you are worse off …than in 2022, 23, 24. Be specific…

Respectfully, I hear what you are saying but you stated that nobody cares about corporate profits. Most of THEIR paychecks are paid by those corporations & companies. It looked like a political post, with no numbers to back up your claim . The only statistic you posted was that gas went up in...

Cmon now … nobody cares about record profits ? Take a step back and think about what you posted. That means the economy is growing and expanding at a high rate . Corporate profits at all time high and you think it only benefits the 1%? The bottom line is this is a solid economy for most people...

They are kinda cool for us Minnesota guys. We don’t have any up here. I guess a couple shouldn’t hurt ? Let’s see if they survive .

Has anyone planted Hickory trees. I ordered a few with what they call a “Nut bundle” from MDC . I planted a few as an experiment. Not sure if they will grow in runners ? Just curious…. These were Shagbark I believe.

The stock market hit a record again today …Since I was driving back from Iowa to Minnesota, I had Sirius XM on (the financial channels). Both Fox & CNBC stated that corporate profits hit an all time record in the first quarter of 2026! This is one reason why the stock market is doing so well...

Might have to try some.. where did you get them ?

No, but that’s interesting. What county ??

Bottomland Bur Oak, White Oak, Swamp White Oak, Black Cherry, Plum & Willow all planted in the past two weeks… Plus a few Spruce & Apple Trees.

I see that. It really depends on many factors . If yields are high, there is profit . Farmers that own the ground might have lower expenses. It’s nice to see it get back up there. It was $3.90 in August of 2024, 3.96 in July of 2025. Hopefully fertilizer drops by next fall, fortunately 80% of...
