My man doesn’t share. Somehow ended up with game rooster but hes beautiful and very good to his ladies. You’ll have post a picture of you dome sparked my curiosity There’s a lot one can do on an acre or less if it’s set right!

Hi all! Today I weeded my strawberry bed and fertilized/watered my small garden of three tomato plants, squash and pumpkins. Also watered the seedling peach trees I started from pits planted last fall.These are a heritage type peach from pits given to me that were purchased from Oikos seeds.

I never seem to do the garden things that I mean to on the days I mean to.
Yesterday I planted potatoes when I meant to do berry canes. Today I did the berries instead of seeds while D *fiiiinally* finished that other garden bed. It's all ready for it's dose of tomatoes which started hardening off. Very exciting! It's supposed to rain tomorrow, but I'm not sure it will. It might rain the next day instead.

I got extra raspberry canes today from a nice lady on CL who had a beautiful yard with these lovely greenhouse frames wrapped in bird netting. She had a pretty water feature in her back lawn too and almost no grass anywhere, just garden beds. It was super pretty. We dug the berry canes out of her vegetable patch. She got her veggie patch weeded and we got berry canes! It was nice!
