I just started another batch of beets, cabbage and basil. Plus many that already were listed. Starting cilantro and parsley soon, both of those overwinter.

Hello My Name is Joe, I am Opa's son. I want to join this group. If you all will have me. While I do not have his gift for writing I have been keeping teaching folks about livestock for my entire life. How can I be of service?

Welcome!
Just being here is already contributing.

Welcome Joe! I am new here.

Not that new!

 

[Dreamzchaser]

Oh, go ahead and throw me under the bus! Don't listen to her. I am only 16 so relatively new.
Yeah @Farmerjoe98 I have been around a bit but now you know who the crazy chicken lady is,

Solar panels in Michigan? Cloudy Michigan? Is this really about the power they might generate or is about getting subsidies? Whether or not they are are built - or, worse, are built if they won't pay for their construction and disposal in their lifetimes. "Pay" meaning not the dollars but the effect on the world's temperature or any other environmental effects.

Peaches! The freestone Red havens are out! Yesterday I made freezer jam, and we are eating peaches, love them!
Haven't done solar panels, but recently added a heat pump with three mini-splits for air conditioning and heat. So far, love them, and electric bill for the hot spell way lower than a less warm last year. We had wall (like window) AC before.
