12 - 1 = 15... After mysteriously and suddenly losing my favorite girl, Morticia, my husband felt bad for me. For my birthday at the end of March, he surprised me and took me to get new chicks! He even gave me permission to have a house chicken (now or in the future)! My new girls are now a month old, zooming, flapping, jumping , and enjoying their new feathers. What a wonderful age! Is anyone else currently raising spring chicks? Share your pictures with us!

May is here (already!) and fur most growing zones, it's officially gardening season! Is anyone growing a garden? I'd love to hear about it! I'm very behind in my garden revamping project and going slowly but surely. My husband and I built raised garden beds...one 8'x8', two 2'x12', three 4'x12', and five 4'x14' beds. We had over 16,000 pounds (yes, you read that right...8 tons!) of soil compost mix delivered to our house and moved it from the front driveway to back of the yard by shovel and wheelbarrow. So many trips back and forth, miles walked, and we still need the 563 cubic feet of garden space is only half full. I built hoop row covers and we got irrigation kits to install. We got 3 varieties of raspberries, 2 blackberries, two blueberries, 2 peach trees, a fig tree, 2 varieties of asparagus, a concord grape vine, and 6 small pomegranate seedlings. More kinds of veggies and herbs than I can list here. It's been a massive project but it's going to pay off! I'm exhausted but excited about our future mini farm.

I’m FINALLY a chicken mama! After a long wait my babies came today…the only sad thing is, they didn’t all make it through the journey here. But, I have 8 healthy chicks right now and they are adorable! I can’t wait to watch them grow and get to know their personalities 😊
