There's a wren nest in the barn, the same nest that was used two years ago. The parents go in and out of the barn all day feeding the young ones. They're not afraid of me, as they see me all the time.

I currently sell at a farmers' market. Nice atmosphere. It takes a lot of preparation. I have to get busy soon, getting lettuce, kale and whatever else ready for tomorrow.

I ordered some seed packets from two seed companies: Bison, Gold Nugget, Red Robin, Tiny Tim, Tumbler Red, Tumbler Gold. Received one order today. Should have time yet this season to see what will work and thrive in a hanging pot, and most importantly what tastes good. Decided that regular...

I'm thinking maybe currant tomato plants. I normally grow those, but this year I planted cherry tomatoes. The currant tomato plants tend to grow very large though. I did find information on varieties that are recommended for pots, but I will have to wait until next year to try those. This...

I have extra cherry tomato plants and would like to grow some in hanging pots. I purchased the pots this morning. My main concern is how does the plant balance with only one plant in the pot? Do the vines grow in all directions to cascade over all of the edges, or do I need to plant two...

Tomatoes, haricot verts, peppers, potatoes, onions, cucumbers. I saw a spaghetti squash that I need to pick. Maybe with heirloom tomato marinara, lots of garlic and mozzarella cheese on top today!

I would help a dog of any breed. If I wasn't looking for a particular breed I wouldn't have my doggie, and that would be a loss that I wouldn't know about, and he would possibly still be a stud, just used, and living in a cage to make expensive doodles (mutts as they used to be called).

Thank you. It would be nice to gather with like minded people. The slugs aren't mine! I posted on that thread. They are someone's by the name of "Frog".

When I was looking for a puppy, I did have an ethical breeder chosen, I watched Hope for Paws a lot, and I had a feeling that why get a puppy when I thought there is a dog out there who needs help. It didn't take long and I found him! An adult version of the puppy I was waiting for. He's such...
