What's New Around the Farm

It's about time for another update on what's new around the farm. Lots of growth as spring comes along!


Paul refilled the bird feeder recently. The birds love it, and deer like to graze on the seeds that fall underneath it.



We cleared out the weeds and old plants from a few rows in the garden recently. It made such a difference!




We recently got an enormous pile of bark dust delivered! Now we get to distribute it among all the blueberry rows and in the garden.



We got a couple rows done, but we still have much to do. Eventually, all five rows will be covered in bark dust. It has a good pH for the plants, and it helps control weeds and keep moisture in.




Patch the donkey says "Hi!" He must be very happy to have a freshly graveled pen, especially as the weather gets nicer.



Spring is coming! What better way to tell than the hundreds of daffodils around the barn coming up?


We planted our Christmas tree! We ended up digging two holes, since the first one was too close to the power lines.



We've started some tomato plants in milk jugs and plastic containers. It's a great way to recycle plastic and start new plants!



The plant rack is like a little jungle!


The little peeps have gotten much bigger; they're more like mid-sized peeps now. They're still very skittish, but it's possible to pet them sometimes.


Isn't the naked-necked one so funny? We ordered more than two chickens, but there were problems with transporting them so we only have two right now. We know the one on the left is a Naked Neck, but we aren't totally sure about the one on the right.
