This year we definitely have broken records in terms of extent of mowing lawns ... at least for some twenty years now!
This thanks to the efforts of many people who have organized themselves independently.
The first part was cutting lawns that were cut in other years, this hay was almost everything packed and taken away.
The other fields have been cut and the hay left on the spot. This was the most eco-logic that can be taken.
In recent years we have tried to collect this hay of little value (contains many other herbs, ferns and low value) and bring in a truck container in Chiuro then be disposed of. Obviously this involves a great expenditure of energy, both to gather hay for transport.
The solution leaving the cut hay in the meadow has the drawback that in the year following the harvest is more difficult and hay also contains the old one. However, since the mountain hay is less sophisticated, difficult in the coming years there will be a greater demand.
would be almost impossible to work all the hay, or rake, pick, pack and ship saw limited time that we all have!
He certainly did fly by the possibility of using the mower bought this year by our association and made available on loan to those who made the request simply by signing a release form .
The mower has been very versatile, especially with the application of iron wheels that increase the stability.
other activity that has been made, again spontaneously without any planning on our part is to clean the path of the Sun, is in on the Dalico, which for some years was not more carefully (maybe the year in which was presented as a low road that connects Tirano Sondrio). The path is therefore feasible in the stretch to dall'Agnée Verdumana and Dalico to the Fountain Valley thanks to the cleaning of brush cutters.
In particular in the two valleys after Barec the moors where grass and shrubs had made it almost blocks the path
Thanks to all those who helped achieve this goal, not those of the very large group that people often say "You crazy!"
