I have 23 acres down here in Walnut Hill, 7 miles east of and 7 miles south of Alabama, almost as far NW as you can go in the Florida Panhandle. I moved down here from Maryland 7 years ago, Maryland's a good place to be from, far from. I started planting grafted pecan trees when I first moved down here, I now have 150 planted and about 14 acres of grass to cut. I bought a new Jinma 354 tractor and a Craftsman 54 inch lawn tractor when I first moved down to here; the original Craftsman (husqvarna) now has 1150 hours on it so I just bought a new Ariens (Husqvarna) lawn tractor to back it up.
I have a Koyker FEL that I bought for the Jinma and installed it right off the bat, I got the set up with the quick change bucket and also have a set of forks for the FEL. I have a 5 foot Bush Hog, a 4 foot box leveler, a short plow for trenching for pipes and a 25 gallon spray rig and last year I came upon a real deal on a new backhoe attachment, the tractor can do about anything.
Actually, the Jinma with the FEL was my muscle down here, as I moved over a two year period; I had plenty of help loading my tandem trailer in Maryland but knew few people down here to help unload it.

Anyway welcome to the original poster. I have an area I have thought about planting Pecan trees. Where did you get your trees from and how much effort does it require to plant and maintain them?
