The tractor man will come to inspect the site on saturday. However, you can also do it manually because of some trees on it.

...

We can all meet between 10am - 1pm every saturday begining this saturday. Allocation of land is on 1st come 1st served. You have 1 week for land preparation.

During harvest, some watermelon buyers will come to the farm to buy, however, each participant can determine the best way to sell for a better return.

Many thanks to all that showed up this saturday. I am still expecting the tractor operator for inspection. Hoping to sort this by monday.

Going by delays from the tractor man, any participant is free to clear his space manually. The labour team on standby can assist.
