Well, we had an interesting week on the farm. We had a cow get stuck in the mud. Now HOW do you get her out you may ask! I did, I called several friends, who raise cattle, and got several answers! But one showed up, Yea Dylan, to help so we went with their expertise. Basically we pulled her out with my Tahoe, sounds like a commercial one friend said Ford got nothing on that! Well, she was not hurt and very happy to be free, followed me all the way to the barn. She seems much nicer now, coming up for a little extra pat now and then!
We also are rooting some fig tree clippings in hopes of growing figs! Thanks Mr. Polo for the clippings! Basically I cut the clippings at the nodes, dipped them in root starter, and buried them in Vermiculite. Worked last year so will try it again!
We got a whole row planted this week so far, lettuce, carrots, and potatoes. So we should have goodies soon! Hope that we can get a lot more in the ground today! Will keep you updated. But the greenhouse is looking GREAT with all the flats sprouting up.
We are getting a face lift on the web-site also. So if you have been to our site, sorry about the broken links, but we are hoping to get it fixed and updated with a new look thanks to Mr. Dee! I will keep you posted when we are ready to unveil our new site!
Also, I have been wanting to write a children's book called "Alice's Farm" since we moved up here! Well, I found someone to help me publish it. I am excited about it and will keep you all updated about it's release! Basically it will be a series about old country sayings so if you know any that you like send them in and they may make it in a book!
I guess that gets you updated for now. I have to get busy the daylight is shining and I need to take advantage of it!
