    What did you do in the garden today?

    I pinched off the flowers on my tomatoes. They are barely a foot tall... I'd like them to grow a lot more before expending energy on fruiting. With all this rain (another inch last night), I need to go weed again... And the mosquitoes are just horrendous! 😩

    What did you do in the garden today?

    I have 5 or 6 Buff Orpingtons so it's hard to say if it's the SAME hen every year, but I *always* have at least one BO who goes broody. I also have 2 Cream Legbars, a Gold Laced Wyandotte, a White Leghorn, and another hen (unknown mixed breed) who are all also broody... I love watching the hens...

    What did you do in the garden today?

    I've grown, or tried to grow, sweet corn every year for the past 5 years. The first year, coons got the entire harvest the night before I was going to reap it. The next 3 years, I tried growing it inside my hoop house which protected it from critters but interfered with consistent germination...

    My BO went broody rather young too, I believe. I always have at least one BO who is consistently broody every spring. They do make very good mothers.

    Broodies... Ti's that time of the year. I've got 6 of them right now. All the more reason why I need to be diligent about picking up eggs every day, although I MIGHT let a couple of the girls hatch a chick or two.

    Too bad you aren't closer... I have 7 adults in the bachelor pen and just added 5 baby roos. One of the adult roos is a beauty too....and sweet/kind to boot. I'd let you have your pick... Oh well, good luck with Frank! 😊

    Making spiced oranges while waiting on Mother Nature to decide if she is going to water us again or not... 🙄

    What did you do in the garden today?

    Reseeded my sweet corn today... Hopefully we won't get any more flash flooding... :fl Transplanted some lambs ear outside so I hope it actually rains tomorrow like it's supposed to.... Also seeded some purslane. Every time I try to grow it, the chickens, goats, and horses eat it to a nub... 😂...

    If you are like me and have no idea what you are doing when it comes to pruning your fruit trees, watch this video! I wish I had found this 2 years ago...

    What did you do in the garden today?

    Going to (kinda) take it easy today. I plan to tie up grapes and plant the Pawpaws finally. The girls stall clean out can wait until tomorrow... My body is SORE today. Might replant more corn if it's dried out some...

    What did you do in the garden today?

    I cleaned the main chicken coop, the boys goat house, and half the girls... After that I was far too tired to finish it. I also did some weeding in the garden. Now my old body hurts so much I don't want to move... 😑 It feels like I did more...

    What did you do in the garden today?

    Well CRAP.... Just walked down to the garden. About half of the corn plot was washed out.... :he Gauge says we had 5 inches of rain. On the flip side, ducks are having a heyday in the water streaming through the pasture.

    Massive wall cloud over the barn

    What did you do in the garden today?

    It's raining so hard this morning that the water is literally spraying from the downspouts... 🙄 I really hope the trench we dug by the corn patch prevents a complete washout....

    What did you do in the garden today?

    Did some weeding tonight since they exploded after yesterday's rain. Going to rain overnight again so I fertilized everything to wash in. Going to be beautiful this weekend and in the low 70s. I've got the Paw Paw trees to get in the ground, along with a small Witch Hazel. This will be the...

    What did you do in the garden today?

    Yes, I have 50 lb bag of kaolin clay but it's never worked for me... Maybe I'm using it incorrectly...

    What did you do in the garden today?

    I've been doing a lot of reading on a reddit thread dedicated to fruit bagging. It seems this is a common struggle with stone fruit. Lots of people trying different things but nothing seems bulletproof yet. So far the best suggestions I've seen are Clemson peach bags and making bags from heavy...

    What did you do in the garden today?

    Anyone ever bagged fruit to keep pests/worms off of it? I know you can't use paper sacks on stone fruit... It has to be able to breathe. This is my first time doing it and I used panty hose. Note to self... They don't work. The bugs just eat through the nylon. 🙄 I also bagged when the peaches...
