Blogging about my adventure learning to be a farmer in the Pacific Northwest. Tuesday, March 5, 2013. We had some beautiful sunny weather this weekend. We also had my husband's father in town. It was like having the stars align and it made for the perfect combination to get some outdoor projects done. (Thanks Dad! I also scored a single packet of seeds for glass gem corn. It should be interesting to grow it and see what we get. This is the boys' newest trick. I feel sorry for Penny since she is 7 wee...

I have been amazed at how busy Spring can be on a farm, even a small farm like ours. We have had a lot of transition this season. It has taken a while to figure out all the plants and animals that are going to work for us here. We just got kiwi plants! We are seeing the beginnings of production from many of our plants. Our grapes have the start o...

Make Your Own Incubator. Wednesday, June 5, 2013. Just a few days makes! I am so sad, though, because I hate the "thinning out" part of gardening. It makes me sad to have to pull up those baby plants and just toss them away. Links to this post. Tuesday, June 4, 2013. What's in my garden? Today I finished getting everything in the garden! I haven't had a garden in ummmmm.30 years, since I was in high school. I am so excited! Cannot wait for the next few months to pass and see what all goodies I harvest!
