Stubbornhillfarm, your raised beds are a sight to behold!!! They remind me of pictures of terracing in China. You GOTTA share pictures later in the year!

Awww...what a sweet and humbling comment, thank you! We just work with what we have to work with. Thank you for reminding me to take it all in and appreciate the beauty. I sure will share pictures when the time comes.

Spread more waste hay from the goats feeder so I won't need a weedeater or snake boots to walk the paths in my raised bed garden.

I didn't know "what" Ginny was...but when you said you were going to "order" her, I assumed some fabulous animal! It doesn't matter to me. Good help is hard to find. So if Ginny is willing to do some seeding for you...I say go ahead and let her do it!

Yea, Ginny is a Rugener gosling (pronounced Roo-jin-er, hence her name) I am training her to tow a wagon, and when she is fully grown I will be using her to tow the Ginnysower.

I cleaned up the potato patch and got all of the bits of rotten potatoes out (yuck!!) and hubby spread rabbit manure and planted watermelons there.

I got out that stubborn last stump yesterday!! Here are some shots from yesterday evening. I've been loading all 8 of them onto my old, repainted, small wheelbarrow JUST for bragging rights!! I SWEAR, that stump took 5 hours to remove. NOW I can finish planting on the south side of my garage.
