My Friendly Farmer Dumped 4 Inches Of Manure On My Plot How Do I Plant Without Scraping It All Off?

Question

I do not have a tiller other than by hand, not strong enough to shove manure off or mix.

Answer 1

This can, still, be a blessing in disguise! Just move the manure out from your planting sites, about a foot, and it will allow the seedlings and young plants a chance to develop before getting exposed to the manure.
