    What did you do in the garden today?

    Spring 2017 first timers post!

    I successfully convinced my husband that we needed chickens. I think my oldest daughter (3 years old) is more excited than I am! lol We have collected a boat load of pallets and will start construction on a coop soon-ish. I'm thrilled to have found BYC, this place is awesome! I'm looking...
