Accidental Homesteader
…a funny thing happened on the way to the bar
Just In Time!
So we have a broody hen (actually three, but we aren’t letting two of them keep eggs). She’s been in the upper left corner of the nesting boxes.
Even More Wildflowers
I love that I have wildflowers instead of lawn. It brings me joy to look out there. We’ve got more new flowers out there today.
Peas Please
So I’m late to the party on peas. Of course when it was canned or frozen peas, it was a terrible party.
But I love me some fresh peas.
Advanced Auctioning
So right after we were done with the Farmers Market, we went to the livestock auction. We were waaaaaay out of our league.
Second Farmers Market
We did another Farmers Market this weekend. I think a once-a-month cadence will work for us.
This week we added a couple of new things to our wares.
More Wildflowers
Every year I think, “well, darn I guess no wildflowers this year.” Then one morning I wake up and *bam* flowers! So we’ve seen the tick weed and beardtongue. We have more!
New Digs and (Potential) New Chicks
The little chicks are not so little now. So we needed to get them into their own coop as soon as possible.
Bee Update
Our two hives are thriving!
Last weekend we checked our bees. We have two hives-north hive and south hive.
Read MoreLess is More
We’ve tried to have a gigantic garden for the last few years. For one reason or another, it just didn’t produce a whole lot. One thing that is an issue is overcrowding. So we are going for fewer plants.
