The Katahdin ewes we had for sale have headed on down the road to their new homes, Chickens are laying huge amounts of eggs averaging small to medium, and Shane's daughter Avery and her family came to visit. Such a great week! Enjoy! Amy
Things Are Picking Up Around the Farm!
Some sheep are about to leave, eggs are coming on like crazy and the garden is on the verge of lots of harvesting! As summer winds down, I only hope the weather continues to hold so the late garden can be harvested! Enjoy! Amy
Heat Wave, Go To The Beach!
We had a minor heat wave this week and it just so happened during our planned trip to the beach for my daughter Morganna's, 12th birthday! Happy Birthday sweet girl! Shane took charge of the garden, sheep, and the rest of the farm while we've been gone, but not much was looking like vast changes before we left anyway. It was also Shane's daughter Constance's birthday last week so we made a trip down to Lacomb to celebrate it on Sunday the 14th. Morganna was on a trip with her dad and didn't get to go, but I bet she was having a blast with him! Enjoy! Amy
Progress: Raised Beds & Chickens
This past week there's been stormy weather that produced tons of fires in the mountains, Garden first harvests/plantings, and some Chicken updates! Enjoy! Amy
Lughnasadh Edition: Planting Times
Here on the homestead, I decided to dedicate to Lughnasadh my list of common veggies, when they can be planted in zone 8b, what they are beneficial with and what they can't be planted around. We try to do companion planting whenever we plant our raised beds. Still lots to do before winter. Enjoy your planting!
