The hollyhocks are blooming
The cats leave me presents 
I added lights to the gate posts.
Of course they are chickens
Took me 2 weeks to get the cooler cleaned up to use 
Milking time. Even Giotto has to get in on it
There were a few blue potatoes ready but I haven’t had time to eat any yet!
A Vernassage tomato
Chocolate pear tomato
Principe Borghesi
Some big red cherry tomatoes
Planting out squash
All the kids got their CD&at vaccine
Cleaned up part of this junk pile
Fixed up the little house
And moved Big Mamma and her foster chicks in
Cut down the pea vines and left them for mulch
1st sunflower
What a jungle.
Got it cleaned up. I was waiting for the ladybugs to move on from the cilantro. Most had gone over to the fennel so I collected cilantro seed. Been trying to get this replanted but haven’t made it yet
I think I’ve hatched way too many chicks
Posie is giving me 1/2 a gallon of milk a day even with her kids still on her. This is after 8-10 hours separating her from them.
This morning some friends came and helped put this up. Trying to make a big enough flat spot on the hill to build a real goat house. Thank you Mindy and Chad!
In other news the truck wouldn’t start and the van had a flat and needs two new tires. The gas station was out of everything but Premium.
But I have all the eggs, meat, cheese and milk I can use. The gardens are starting to get going. And we are headed in the right direction even if it is slow going.
#appreciation
Today I appreciate friends and helpers. That job would have taken me a month or more by myself
