Garden from a hay field

riverbend7
17 years ago

Recently I gained access to a hay field which was seeded over 20 years ago in which I would like to start a garden / orchard 1 to 2 acres in size. The field contains a fair bit of alfalfa, dandelions, clover, some thistle and ... quite a few pocket gophers. There has been no pesticides or herbicides applied over the 20 years. For the past 5 years there have been a small number of cattle and horses using the field as pasture. I would like to hear any suggestions about how to proceed!
