July 30: establishing limits

July 30:  I began scouting where to run a perimeter path down the wooded strip between field and brook.  One idea is to use this path as the border zone that we have to enforce:  knotweed can stay on the brook side, but can’t be allowed across.  (This doesn’t mean we can’t cut knotweed on the brook side, but just that the path is the absolute barrier.  We’ll see.  I would love to eliminate those little ones spreading into the woods.  They’re popping up closer and closer to the field.
