Apologies for any repeated material from week to week, but when everyday is the same, it is easy to get days mixed up!
Blind Hog and Acorn have been busy with farm chores, food preparation, canning, woodsplitting. Today's pasture walk revealed the winter forecast via persimmon seeds (spoiler, it was a spoon = snow).
Sam's paw is healed, no more protective boot. Yay!
Has been an interesting few weeks to say the least. Blind Hog and Acorn have been doing all the things, and with Acorn seemingly taking off (literally) every 5 -7 days, no wonder the garden is behind!
Good news is that the tomatoes and eggplants are out, cabbage, onions, broccoli etc all doing well. Even saw some green strawberries!
The dawn redwood has transplanted just fine, and even the two ginkgo trees have leafed a bit.
Was storming up a treat during recording, hard to complain when May rain brings on great summer pastures...
And most important dear listeners, please get a fire extinguisher to keep in your car- you could save a life!
Lots of loose ends getting done around the farm- hot tub was repaired, drained and cleaned. Purple martin gourds removed and put away for the winter. Corner fence post reset and fence wire affixed. Hay feeders are now in the yard awaiting new tarp covers which Acorn will make out of used billboard fabric.
Blind Hog fired up the burn pile then later he and Acorn also mounted the 10 yr old gas grill onto a nice, smooth, level platform. Nor more wobbly grill! Acorn gave it a good cleaning and new sear plates are on their way- will have it cooking like new!
Barn kitties are also forthcoming- friend Judy wanted to do a steep reduction in her numbers- we are taking 4 teens and a momma with 3 kittens. They will be divided between three barns. Looking forward to "rodent control" make no mistake!
Acorn has begun new classes online for healthcare professionals- she desires to start her own "thing," more about that will be disclosed later on. She did however go ahead and secure a catchy web domain. "If you build it, they will come..."
Finally from the SteelMeadow Kitchen- Homemade English Muffins are easy! Do not be intimidated!
