Gardening at the German Farm

Pheeew, progress is a lot slower than expected due to the current "labor shortage". By that I am of course referring to me single-handedly turning the dirt in the garden while entertaining the children. I have spent the past four weekends turning dirt and have about a third done. And it is really not a very big area.

Also, in the past two weeks the farm has completely exploded into green. The fields are unrecognizable from a fortnight ago. And the weather has been fantastic, in the mid 70s I would estimate. While we had some visitors stopping by I looked up and we had some amazing cirrocumulus clouds puffed into the sky.


All right, better get back to turning dirt ... :)

Sunday Activities

Sunday will be another day of gardening at the German Farm. Hopefully we will get everything done this time and post some before and after pictures of the gardens. We are also looking at cooking in our outside kitchen and churning butter. The weather forecast for Sunday is great, a lovely 85 F (29 C) degrees.
