A Long Silence

Okay, things beyond our control at the farm have kept us from posting. We are hopeful that these distractions have hit a lull and we are now ready to let you in on all the news.

For the most part, all news is good. We still have six chickens.

Our crops are going well too. In fact, they are growing so well that we are planning an expansion for fall plantings as well as next spring. This August we will remove the rest of the lawn and plot out more permanent plots for next year. Anyone with suggestions for how to make this happen without looking like poo, we'd love to hear from you!

Here are a few highlights of what's growing:

Thai Hot Peppers



Blueberries



Lettuce



Potatoes


Peas





Squash



Broccoli



We also have brussel sprouts, bok choi, cabbages, tomatoes and more herbs than we can list going.

Aside from eating our own lettuce and watching the rest grow, we have been lucky enough to enjoy the strawberries that cover our yard where ever we're not growing something else.



Coming soon: The coop gets some art, concrete mushrooms are growing, and making seed bombs...
