Congrats!!! I got one of them Pisces myself. :D

Ronde de nice they are round zucchini. Great for stuffing.

Not sure. I lost track of what was planted. :rolleyes:

Here is yesterdays yield of just the cherry tomatoes grown from seeds thanks to the seed train. Thanks guys.

I want that recipe! :D

So yesterday was the garden tour. An amazing day. We had all kinds of folks stop by. I talked so much my throat hurt. Most of them came to see the animals. They never saw sheep up close, let alone the lambs. All the animals were exhausted by 3:00. I was asked how roosters fertilize eggs...

Wow, what a day! It was 82* low humidity, not a cloud in the bright blue sky and a light breeze. Perfect. The first guest was quite the interesting woman. Dressed in a watermelon motif. And she was not happy. "Where is the food? Isn't this a kitchen garden tour?" After her I could...

Well, today is the BIG DAY. I am ready. I quick deadheading and once over and we are there. I did get the lawn mowed last night, yay. I wonder how many times I will have to say, "No, that is a ewe. Horns don't make it a boy or a goat." Poor Ol'Thelma is always being confused for a boy...

One day to go and it is POURING! I still have to mow and trim. I hope I don't have to do it tomorrow morning after the goats get milked. I wonder how that will go over with the seahag next door....

Thanks guys. Dh says I have to work on my confidence. I see the pictures of all your stuff and I think, "How did they do it?" Lesa, your tea garden is precious. I wish mine was as adorable. Digits your oats are amazing. I am sure I have looked at pics you all have posted and Oooed and...

Yes, it is the duck pond. A lot of the area was swamp, so we dug out the duck pond and added all the drainage paths you see that drain down to the pond. We raised the level of the yard with yard debris and the such. Built the rock wall to retain everything and gradually filled. It has taken...

3 Days to go. I have all the gardens weeded except the back one. I took pics anyway for yous guys. :lol: Here is my greeting party. A view from the front yard looking towards the animals. The 2 newest members of the farm. The gardens..... Now a good mow and trim and I am all...

Fresh.

Lesa, you are right. I am over stressing. I just returned from the library where I found out that 6 of the 8 gardens on the tour were hit. So I stand corrected when I said I was the only one hit. Apparently there was hail in a broader area than first thought. There was also a waterspout...

It has taken me all morning to address the front garden. Progress is good. There are empty spots that I will have to address but that just means going to the greenhouse. ;) The squash plants are in rough shape. Too late to replant them. :( Now some lunch and off to the next garden.
