Hello, just an update....in the end most the meadow was dry enough to bring out our large John Deere tractor and flail mower attachment.  We also hired a pedestrian flail mower for a weekend to do some of the fiddly corner bits the tractor couldn't reach.  I also need to attack some encroaching willow soon, so it will be easier to manage the edges next year.  We will look at improving the ditches too.
