Much needed update, Month 3

The Spring garden is mostly taken out now but it was beautiful, and delicious.

Brussel sprouts

Squash beans and sunflowers


Flowers and broccoli 



Steven's beautiful work on a loom.

Ruca & Patchuli


Prepping for our own garden.
We put that fence up. After removing another that came right up to the trailer.

Prepping the soil

Rows for veggies & herbs in the corner

Bow saws are something we are very familiar with


These are workin' hands

Libby made Ruca mittens, poor Ruca

We're gonna try some grapes out

Up and growing. 


Spinich and buttercrunch lettuce are comin up!

Update!

Farmers Market 2 weeks ago

Peaches were a hit!
Blackberries grow like crazy

Wine anyone?



Steven gets more bites from Ruca than the fish ;)



Libby's addicted to making earrings now! first pair
Picked apples from 1 of the many trees on the property

Hard apple cider anyone?



Rain proofing for the winter


New fishing spot... no fish caught ;)






He fishes, she makes earrings

Bee sting
2nd pair


Fresh baby  buns

We named her Patchuli

Too bad it's over exposed, we switched pants so he's wearing cute little shorts

Er'y day and er'y night

Libby's idea of tie downs

Right above our site













Right across from where we live. Our new beach :)




You-pick-it farm.. where we get the veggies we sell







Stop here if you do not want to see some graphic chicken butchering. Remember that this is what happens to chickens you eat... but probably in a less humane way in one way or another.

Ruca wasn't allowed to watch
