Photo Update...


Here is a quick photo of my canned stock (I’m rather proud of it; I’ve never made or canned stock before).

These are our turkeys and ducks… The ducks are getting huge, and the turkeys aren’t little poults themselves anymore either. I know there living quarters don’t look very “open pasture,” but you’ll have to trust me on this one, they will be open pasture birds… It is just now they are A) too young and small, and need protected from predators, and B) they are too young and small, and still need the heat lamp. But both of those things will change in the next few weeks and then we will release them out to pasture.

                My radishes are like “this” close to being ready to eat!

                The Black Seeded Simpson lettuce has a bit of a ways to go yet, but with all this rain and warm weather we have been having, I’ll be having garden fresh salad in no time!

                This is one of the rhubarb roots that I planted last week; it is already getting started! They all are already starting, but it was easier to take a picture of just one of them…

                This is that stick I planted a while back, and it is well on its way to becoming a pear tree.

                Feta taking her noon-time nap.

                This is the temporary pen we built her until she is large enough to pasture with the other goats.

                Two of the dozen or so rabbits that we need to turn into sausage and stock…
