What did you do in the garden today?

[Wee Farmer Sarah]

No extra outside work today. There’s a couple of brush fires within Massachusetts, lots of smoke in the air. I’m working on the laundry. We may get 1/3 inch of rain overnight. Fingers crossed.

Very dry and windy here. I put all the dog bedding out to blow, did some garden soaking while I caught up on this thread. The basil seeds arrived from @akroberts1085 last week, within good time concidering they came from Cali and ive waited as long to get post from my neighbouring state.

The kangaroo paw is putting on a good Spring show this year!

Those are gorgeous. I don't know if they would do good here but if you can do it could you please send me a couple of them?. I would greatly appreciate it.

Set a new record of 83 yesterday old record 79. 80 today may set a new record. Windy yesterday. Maple trees in my yard a looking bare. Made pumpkin bread Sunday.

We got about .15 inch worth of drizzle overnight. I picked salad greens. There’s enough for several nice salads.

We got a teeny drizzle last night too. I watered whats left out there - strawberries, greens, carrots & my venus fly trap.

I'm struggling with culling a couple old hens. One of them was laying very thin shelled eggs that were breaking, one day one will break in her & it won't be good. I don't really want to feed them through the winter, I need more young chickens for eggs in the spring, but I've never culled anyone just because they were getting old.

Insane winds and we hit 85 yesterday. At 1030 pm it was still 79'.
Now it's 48 and thundering and raining like mad. Already 1.25 inches and still falling. I'll take it!

We need a care emoji. I did cull one of the roosters, but I still have 3 more that need to go. I just keep putting it off.

It's never easy, even if necessary & humane.
