Since I posted last we've gotten a few more inches of snow :( I have tons of seeds also but love to order something new to try. I'm going to try some colored cauliflower this year. I always need to order some carrot & beet seeds though. I am going to try again this year on starting my own...

:happy_flower Ok Michiganders time to bring this thread alive again. :celebrate I received some of my seeds in the mail yesterday and I am waiting on one more order. I can hardly wait to get them started! Here in the north we still have alot of snow on the ground but thats not gunna stop me...

We only received a sprinkle of rain yesterday...BUT today it's been drizzling all day. I went ahead and made two loaves of zucchini bread and some dill and bread&butter pickles. Great day for that!

I got a little bit of rain this morning and looks like its been raining all around us today. I've been busy insulating the chicken coop. (16' x 13') They should have a nice warm place to play this winter. My tomatoes, well a few of them should be ready to pick tomorrow. :celebrate Swampducks...

Never thought to put the leftovers in them...Great idea ;)

:caf I see it's been awhile since anyone has been on here..... Garden is still doing good :) The pumpkins are turning orange already :ep Seems to be quite a bit early to me.... I have zucchini enough now to feed a small army it seems. Been giving it to anyone who comes over if they want it...

With all the sand I have here we add all kinds of dirts and manures. As a matter of fact we have a large pile of swamp dirt to add this fall. I've been outside tonight picking wild black berries. Been doing pretty good to for free...2&1/2 qt freeaer bags full already :)

Suppose to get some rain here tonight and tomorrow :celebrate Hope them weather forcasters are right. I was gunna say "right for once" but didn't want to get anyone upset. Oops just said it didn't I? :hide When did you get the rain Swamp?

Idon't believe it has cornmeal...great flavor though :P

Its a mix that many use for fish and chicken. It comes in a powder form, like flour. Directions call for you to mix with egg and milk I think :/ I've always just dipped whatever in egg then in the dry mix and fry. Maybe they don't sell it everywhere?????

:/ interesting...gunna have to try in a salad and as dessert

:drool sweet corn......can't wait for some. At least the grass doesn't crunch to loud here now, but I don't see mowing it in its near future. I'm thinking about butchering a few roos here soon to. While its somewhat cool out yet. Do you take the skin off or did you pluck the feathers?

I just made some deep fried cheese filled zucchinni blossoms. I put mozzerella cheese in them and rolled in a whipped egg, then in some dry Drake mix. They are the best! Now I can see why some people just grow the squash for the blossoms.

I think we got most of that rain yesterday that you said hit north, Swampducks. It also misted off and on all morning today. Our pig area outside and in the barn flooded with about and inch and a half on the cement. Came right in threw the door that the pigs use. Never happened before...

:( Sorry to hear your garden isn't producing so well Swampducks. Maybe if you get some of the rain that is forcast for the next two days it'll help. Sure couldn't hurt. Mine really needs it. I went out right before dark last night and was horrified to see grey bugs all over a pumpkin...

Jared are you the one on another thread that gave the recipe for Zuchinni boats? If it was thanks :bow Best way I've had zuc ever! My favorite way of making it now :) As for your garden, it sounds great! I'm still waiting on some red tomatoes yet. :bee And have found that my favorite...

Welcome to our little group of gardners Steven. Hey thats my DH and DS's name. Good name :rose Didn't get the coon but it set off the trap and dug a huge hole under the coop door. Couldn't get it because my very smart DH buried a 2x6 beneath it :plbb Setting the trap again tonight. I...

We've got a coon! DH is setting the live trap tonight. Two roosters dead :( He found the hole that they or it got into the rooster coop at. I'm hopeing that if they find they can't get into the rooster coop that they don't go and explore the new hen coop. Its pretty secure but...

I copied the salsa recipe also, but mine will be mild :) thanks for sharing SCG

Processed some green beans and pickled beets. Also some summer squash. Anyone ever canned summer squash before? I'm hopeing it'll be better then freezing it.
