I got my tomatoes up off the ground. They all look pretty good right now. I forgot how much I love the smell of tomato plants until I was tying them up yesterday. I don't even know where I would have smelled them before since I've never been able to grow tomatoes, but the smell was familiar, delicious and comforting.
The chickens are doing well and eating a lot! I've stopped giving them fermented feed since it's been so hot and it goes off over night. I sure don't want to make them sick!
I'm looking into growing fodder for them in the winter though.
I have the day off, so I'm stopping by the giant feed store that opened 2 towns over. Hoping to find a variety of grains like folks say they get from feed Mills, might be easier to fermented that and I can also use the grains to sprout and grow fodder when the green disappears in winter.
I'm also knee deep in about 5 books on small homesteading, raising goats, building rabbit cages, etc... My dad thinks I'm crazy, I told him he should know, I get all my wacky behaviors from him!
Take care all,
jean
