I thought I should also mention a few words about my chickens, and the dirt we received. My babies are no longer babies. They have quintupled in size since the last time I chit chatted about them. They are all getting their feathers and eating a ton. They grow up so fast (sigh). Now on [...]

Static

So….looking at my stats, I seem to be going static every couple of days. I’ll try to make it more interesting. Today we sold lettuce to a new consumer. Jammin’ Java on the Fayetteville square is the new proud owner of 5 lbs. of organic spring mix. Thank you for your patronage. We also received [...]

So, Roy emailed us the other day, and here is the tiniest excerpt: It is great to see all that work coming to fruition. On the blog it looks like it just sprang up. there really isn’t any way to convey the amount of work that goes into something like that. I think he’s right. I [...]

Ehemmm. Let’s see, where do I begin? Ok, I’d like to first and foremost like to thank our heavenly Mother, Mother Earth. For without her, there would be no being in general, so yeah for being alive! Next, the family of the light up on the hill, Light and Johanna. Because I needed some extra [...]

I LOVE our new chickens. At first I felt scared, and responsible, but overnight they won my heart, and I am here for them. I took some more pictures of them, but I’ll post them tomorrow.

Big news. We picked up some chickens about an hour ago. We got them from a guy who raises them. His name is Duane, and he’s from Winslow, AR. We got a mixed batch of breeds. They are all female (15 in all), Paul has their breeds written down somewhere, but I don’t know what [...]

Not EVERY time, but sometimes. It froze here a few days ago, and we covered our lettuce up with some heavy plastic to insulate it a smidge. However, it still received some burnt spots here and there. The arugula is especially suffering. I don’t know what it’s problem is. Some bugs must be eating it, [...]

Paul and I managed to have some seeds pop up . I don’t know how. Mother Nature does crazy things. About 99% of our tomato seeds popped up. Our bell peppers (which were planted at the same time) have only had about a 20% success rate. I don’t know what their deal is. Maybe they [...]
