What happens here
The presenter continues to walk through the property, highlighting several distinct DIY projects and areas. He reiterates the effectiveness of his deer fence system around the garden, noting that even with 40 deer present on the property, none entered the garden. He points to an area where they are setting up a temporary chicken processing area using a prep table and a three-bay sink that will be covered, ensuring all runoff water goes directly into the garden. He then shows his corn garden, emphasizing the difference in growth between rows that were watered and those that weren't. Adjacent to the corn garden, he shows a large water tank on a trailer used to provide temporary water for the goats. This trailer will eventually be converted into a 'Goat Mobile,' a mobile feeding and transport unit for the goats. He also mentions plans to build a hog lot near the barn for manure collection and a greenhouse using cattle panels.
