Now I just have to find a used set of disc harrows and a 3pt moldboard plow. I should be able to get both of those at an upcoming auction. 1 step closer to commercial garlic growing.

New Tractor
We got a new tractor, a Kubota L3200 4x4 with front loader. It is 2x the size of our old tractor and can lift 3x the weight with the loader. Our old tractor also had turf tires, so the R1 tires are a big plus. The rear work lights have been really useful and have extended my hours splitting/hauling wood. We paid extra for the 66" bucket with quick release, which allows the loader arms to use skid loader attachments. The only downfall is that I have to rebuild my compost bins since they are built for my old bucket which was 54".
