Just a note of caution, I'm known more than one person who has had a
tractor roll over on them. One of them, is no longer with us because of
the event. Those things are more dangerous than it would appear.

We have some forty odd acres, and my wife likes gardening, planting
trees and so on. We have a source for mixed horse**** and sawdust for
free and another source for wood chips. So we have big piles of both.
Not to mention crushed limestone for the driveway.
So I bought her a tractor, a small John Deere, with a loader. And a
roll bar. All those standard for decades air conditioned cabs will
withstand a rollover.

Problem with that mixed horse**** is the oats. I used some about 35 years
ago in the garden. Had a great crop of oats for about the next 3 years.
