The garden is coming together sort of piece-meal... getting a little done here and there. It seems a bit over-whelming at times but once I actually get out there with my hands in the soil, I am in my happy place and it's all fine.
Earlier this week planted beans. I just love the look of Jacob's Cattle Beans. We love the taste of them too!
I've had a few problems with my old nemesis, the cutworm....

Yesterday we were back to the Farmer's Market. It was a little slower than the first two weeks. I enjoy being there and visiting with the people, but the time spent is difficult to reconcile. We'll see. Anyway, I am feeling good about how the soap is going. I'm getting good feedback and return customers so that's encouraging and I made a new batch this morning.
Yesterday we sent Phil off to his new home. He's a fine youngster and I'm sure he will make a good herd sire for his new family. David and Stewart will be leaving this week for their new lives too.
So, enough for tonight, I have a few more things to accomplish and am really looking forward to bed!
Sleep well, and be Well friends!

We finally got our garden in too. I have to stock up this year with the devastation of our garden last year. I just hope I have the energy to do it all, ha ha!
ReplyDeleteWell, we find the energy somewhere right? I am home today and planted some Swiss chard, carrots, radishes, and basil plants - so far. It's 64 degrees, cloudy and threatening rate. Supposedly it's June but... Anyway, the house is cold so I just put the oven on and a ham is going in - that should warm it up! And back out to the garden until it rains.
