Then, you have to use a bike trailer to haul in some proper soil amendments (in extreme cases of corpulence, you will need to haul off all of the rocky soil and replace it as well). Next, you need to purchase, haul (by bike, of course) and plant the raspberries. All watering is to be done by hauling pints of water a minimum of five miles; one pint per trip. When the fruit comes on, get picking.

If you like the berries, eat them. If not, go ahead and make the extract, but the weight loss should have already begun. If not add more acreage.
