We visited the farm or “Finka” since we are in Panama. We also checked on the progress of the red house. We have an update on Mom and the greenhouse too.
I remember walking through those jungles and you would see the whole floor moving lol, those ants used to have ant hills the size of cars throughout the jungle and carrying everything with them .
Our property is between Bouquete and Volcan. Thank you! We have so many plants! We have Boganvilia, dwarf morning glories, Alternanthera Snow Balls, Chinese Ixora, Grape Myrtle, Bleeding Hearts, Shooting start, and then there’s the fruits and vegetables. Everything is in pots for now. I’m sure we will add to our collection by the time we are ready to plant things in the ground.
Nice area... LIttle tip, the easy way to clean up bushes and tall grass is goats. Ask around. Many people will bring them over ( the ones that have them) for free/ at least back in the day . Nice video!
Normally I would agree with you. However this place was abandoned for a long time and exposed to rain. The roof will definitely be on before we start the finishes

@@atribecalledcookies4 there are a lot of ants and different kinds of them too
Ir'd be nice to know what you paid for the farm and what you expect to pay for the remodel
We paid $130,000 for the farm. It’s costing us $55,000 to fix the red house. So I’m optimistic about what it’s going to cost us to get a house built.
can you say just WHERE it is ? approximately? the Chiriqui province is pretty big....?@@waywardstrays
@@harmonyintouch It is in the Potrerillos Abajo area.
Congratulations!!! Cant wait to move there. Wish Mom the quick recovery.
What are you going to plant? How far from Bouquette?

@@rodhowaboutthat4468 we have owned goats and kind of swore off them. We do have plans to get some sheep though. Something we won’t have to sheer.
How much did you pay for the red house itself without remodel costs?
We ended up paying $50,000 for the red house before renovations and we were quoted $57,000 and some change for the reno.
Always get it dry fix the roof first
