From the land of better late than never: approximately 100 pounds of potatoes and and who knows - a hundred or two melon seeds.

Slow but sure progress

I put a lot of effort into planning and visualizing the market garden right up until it came time to put planning into action. And then I just… didn’t care. I tried to go through the motions because I knew I’d regret taking a year off. The garden is in rough shape but slowly getting under control and things are being planted. This feels like a year where success will quiet - but every jar of jam, every pound of potatoes, every melon will quietly be a triumph. Because man, did I make things harder on myself than they should have been.

The chicks are on grass now. We got Icelandic chicks mostly to use following the cows and sheep, but added American Bresse to raise for meat. I’ve been surprised that the Bresse are more active and willing to explore - will be interested to watch them grow.

You can file this under dreams come true.

Started some tomato seeds in early March that never germinated… got mad and dug around on Monday to see what was going on, figured out I never actually put seeds in. They germinated in three days. The ram has gotten himself into two pickles this week that led to a lot of sunset and sunrise scrambling to keep him safe. This year has been a scramble like no other - no idea how successful anything will be this year but giving it all a go anyway.
